Annual pay hikes for the mayor, city clerk, and city treasurer would be linked to the rate of inflation, and capped at 5% per year.
Chicago's mayors haven't had any pay raises since 2006, but a proposal from Mayor Lori Lightfoot could change that starting in 2024.
The salaries for all three elected offices have not changed since 2006 under former Mayor Richard M. Daley. Since then, the mayor's salary has remained $216,210 per year, and the city clerk's and city treasurer's salaries have stayed at $133,545. The mayor, city clerk, and city treasurer would be allowed to opt out of any year's pay increase, similar to the process already used to determine the annual salary for Chicago alderpersons.
"To be clear, the ordinance that was introduced today would put the mayor, the city treasurer, and the clerk in line with all the other elected officials regarding a cost of living increase. It's not a salary increase, I want to make sure that's clear, and it puts us in line with the aldermen. It would not go in effect until 2024 at that point, and each member, the mayor, the clerk, and the treasurer would have the ability to opt in or opt out," she said.
