Narromine Shire Council will hold its ordinary meeting on Wednesday night. It will also include the agenda items from the deferred meeting initially scheduled for June 10.

On the agenda is a motion from councillor Jan Jablonski calling for councillors to keep their pay at the current amount.

Her motion states "that councillors consider not taking a pay increase for this coming financial year to help alleviate the financial burden on ratepayers".

Councillors are able to increase their pay by 2.6 per cent.

According to Local Government NSW, councillors at a rural council like Narromine can be paid a minimum of $9190 for their annual fee and a maximum of $12,160. Meanwhile, the mayor's fee can be between $9780 and $26,530.
