Dear Editor:
Re: "Richmond councillor wants elected municipal officials' salaries consolidated"
I guess I am missing the point in the brouhaha over what Mayor Malcolm Brodie makes in salary.
Mr. Brodie is paid $198,000 for running a city of approximately 220,000 people...no easy task.
All of the other stipends are part of a system that he has no control over.
If Mr. Brodie does the work (which I am sure he does very well), he deserves the pay for it.
My bigger concern is how a fellow retires from an extremely well paid job with the City of Richmond and, upon retirement, gets a job that pays over $400,000 to run the Richmond Oval.
Does this not seem to be out of sync?
I'm sure if Mr. Brodie had stayed in his law practice, he would be making a lot more money....with a lot less headache.
Thank you, Mayor Brodie.
