A motion to include an increase in Councillors’ expense allowances is on the table as Perth discuses the 2024 budget.
It currently sits at $3,500, but the motion on the raise calls for it to increase to $5,500. Mayor Judy Brown says the allowance hasn’t gone up in quite a while.
The motion also calls for the removal of caps on attending conferences. The proposal will be included in future budget talks.
