Surrey city council members’ remuneration and expense payments for 2022 came to a grand total of $506,247, according to a corporate report from Kam Grewal, Surrey’s general manager of finance that came before council Monday night.
Mayor Brenda Locke had the biggest tab at $118,493 – which included her expenses as a city councillor from January to October 2022 – followed by Councillors Linda Annis ($113,642), Mandeep Nagra ($107,526), Doug Elford ($100,348).
The rest of the councillors’ tabs were smaller, due to the fact that they were new to council, having been elected on Oct. 15, 2022. This includes Harry Bains ($15,364), Mike Bose ($13,168), Pardeep Kooner ($12,695), Gordon Hepner ($12,695) and Rob Stutt ($12,565).
This includes base salary as well as allowance, benefits and other expenses. Base salaries, all combined, worked out to $404,643.
