You Raise Me Up?


In this time of budget shortfalls, there are those on the Des Moines City Council who want to give the mayor a pay raise.

Possible raise for mayor raises eyebrows

Councilman Skip Moore doesn't feel the mayor's $30,000+ salary and $55,000 a year total compensation is enough.

“We’re trying to project ourselves as a world-class city, and it is going to take a world-class mayor”.

Then you need to replace the world class ass, Frank Cownie (pictured), you have as mayor and the scientific community is united in that fact.

It should be noted the the mayor is a part time position and Des Moines is facing a shortfall that is projected to be as high as $7.7 million.
