- NYC elected officials could get nearly 20% pay raises this summer – far more than they asked for
New York City elected officials may receive an 18.2% pay increase this summer after a commission recommended salary adjustments for the mayor, City Council, and other top officials, citing a 31% inflation rise in the NYC area since 2016. The proposed changes, framed as a cost-of-living adjustment, require City Council approval and would affect roles including the mayor, Council members, and borough presidents.
