Complaining that Trenton Mayor Tony Mack hasn’t be working full-time since his arrest on federal bribery charges, the city council is considering cutting his salary by more than half, reports the Times of Trenton.
If the measure is approved, Mack’s annual salary would gall from $126,460 to $60,000.
“We’re making the position a part-time job based on the work that’s been done,” Council President Phyllis Holly-Ward said.
The mayor, who was arrested last month and charged with conspiring to extort bribes from FBI informants, is expected to appear at tonight’s council meeting, according to the Times of Trenton.
