No pay raise for wage earners

A letter writer disagree with Delta mayor and council voting themselves a raise.

Once again the Delta mayor and council have voted themselves a raise within a two-year period. Now they always make sure they keep up with the rate of inflation.

Forget all the other hard wage earners that have to come up with a hike in garbage, water and sewage fees in April and house taxes in July.

Don’t ask seniors to downsize either, as to purchase a smaller home the province will want a piece of the pie  and collect a huge property transfer tax, HST, real estate fees, lawyers fees, etc.

Millions were spent on an animal shelter in Delta. When was millions spent on seniors’ housing by council?
