==Proposed City Charter Amendment on City Council Compensation ==
Public Hearing/Resolution| 1st of 1 reading | Consider a proposal to amend Section 5 of the Charlottesville City Charter
*Issues: City Charter Amendment; Public Hearing<ref>https://www.publicnoticevirginia.com</ref>
:[[File:Vote motion passed.png|frameless|x20px|link=]]
*On motion by [[Wes Bellamy]], seconded by [[Kathy Galvin]], Council authorized that a request be made of state legislators to amend the City Charter to allow City Council to set its own compensation. The General Assembly must approve charter changes because Virginia is a [[Dillon Rule]] state, meaning localities only have powers specifically granted to them by the state legislature. Currently, councilors make $18,000 a year and the mayor makes $20,000 a year. The range is the maximum allowed under state guidelines.
