Review of Local Government Stipends (Salary)

Yesterday, the Prince George Citizen reported that Prince George Council is set to begin a process to review its' salary to Mayor/Council.  See here.  Also, PG Council will establish a Ad-Hoc Committee of 4 community members to do the review and report back to PG Council.  See that here

Last week, the Thompson-Nicola Regional District (TNRD) Board upped its' stipend for its Board Directors by 40-70%.  See that story from the Kamloops Daily News here

Former Kamloops Mayor & Kamloops Daily News Editor Mel Rothenburger blasts both the TNRD Board and current Kamloops Mayor Peter Milobar for the TNRD stipend increase here

Question - should Williams Lake, Quesnel, Wells and 100 Mile Councils and the Cariboo Regional District Board review their stipend (salary) packages or do they get sufficient pay from their local taxpayers?
