Remuneration of Elected Officials
According to the law, municipal officials receive compensation for their time dedicated to their roles, which include the mayor, deputies, and councilors. Key points regarding these indemnities include:
- Regulated by law
- Capped to a certain limit
- Calculated based on municipal size
The new council has committed to maintaining the current budget for indemnities, with no increases since November 14, 2022. They aim to ensure a fair distribution among council members. Notably, six councilors who also serve on the Bergerac Agglomeration Community had their indemnities reduced. This adjustment enabled an increase in compensation for deputy mayors, without additional costs to the city.
