If the ordinance is approved at next month's meeting, it would become effective until Jan. 1.

Cravins put numbers to the proposal: cutting the mayor's salary by $11,022 a year and the aldermen's salary and vehicle stipend by $2,869 a year.

Mayor Cravins currently makes $72,000 and has proposed it will be dropped to $51,739.

Donald Cravins is suggesting that his salary be reduced from $72,000 to $52,000.

The Daily World reports Cravins had warned earlier in the meeting that if the council passed a budget that included a raise for all city employees, he would veto it.
