After passing a measure last week to increase the salaries of Princeton's mayor and city council members beginning next year, another measure will increase council memebers salaries even more.
 
WPKY reported Princeton City Council voted in another special call meeting Tuesday night on first reading of an ordinance to raise council members salaries beginning next year to $5,400 annually or $450 per month. 

Mayor Brock Thomas said the council deserves to make more than they do but cannot pay them what they are truly worth.

During a special call meeting last week, the council voted to raise both the mayor and council's salaries beginning next year.  Second reading on the new measure for the council will be voted on next week.
