            Voters will decide in August whether the salaries of Boca Raton’s elected officials should be quadrupled. In a 4-1 vote with Scott Singer dissenting, the City Council agreed to place a referendum on the August ballot that would link the mayor’s and council members’ salaries to those of Palm Beach County commissioners. The mayor’s annual pay would rise from $9,000 to $38,355.20. When presented to voters, the language will say the mayor’s higher salary would equal 40 percent of the salary of Palm Beach County commissioners. Each council member’s salary would increase from $7,200 to $28,766.40. That would equal 30 percent of a county commissioner’s pay. If voters approve it, the change would take effect in October.

     Palm Beach County could be required to refund nearly $3.3 million in federal disaster-relief funding it received for hurricanes in 2004 and 2005. County commissioners voted Tuesday to pay back $341,857 to the Florida Division of Emergency Management.
