<br /> Mr. Norris made a motion to approve the ordinance, and that we adopt the idea of
<br />adjusting the salaries each year based on the amount for general employees. Ms.
<br />Hamilton seconded the motion.

<br />SALARIES OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS” was offered and

<br />
<br /> Ms. Tammy Londeree, 813 Locust Avenue, Apt. C, said that everybody is fussing
<br />about war and soldiers. She said when Hurricane Katrina happened other countries
<br />offered money and President Bush and Vice President Cheney would not take it. She
<br />said there is a lot of speeding on Locust Avenue. She expressed concern that victims of
<br />traffic accidents have to take responsibility for tracking down the violators.
<br />
<br /> Mr. Bill Lankford, Market Street, said there is a legal process to follow for
<br />impeachment and Council has an obligation to support the impeachment resolution.
<br />
<br /> Mr. Lloyd Snook, Hillwood Place, said that if enforcement of speeding is not
<br />increased the increased fine will be perceived of as unfair. He expressed concern that
<br />there will be a number of people who do not pay the fine which could increase the
<br />number of people driving on suspended licenses. He expressed concern about the
<br />societal consequences. He said the idea ought to be working on enforcement.
