Where did you get the salary numbers - was it from the published municipal budgets?

Audited financial statements.
All municipalities must report earnings of the CAO and all members of council,the mayor is a member of council.
My post was based on the information from HRM documents and available on their website.

All Financial Statements from 1999/2000 to the present are available here :

Note that the method of presentation is not consistent for all prior years. earlier statements were not consolidated and now they are.
More detail is available by cross referencing the Financial Statements with the budget documents and for the past few years the budget documents have greater detail than previous years thanks to the persistence of former councillor Sue Uteck who kept asking for more detailed documents and eventually Tim Outhit joined in with her and won the day.
