Welcome to Bell, California! Population 36,600 -- average income - about half of that of the rest of the United States. Unless you are the city manager, city council or on the city payroll!
City Manager - $787,637 per year (plus perks of course)
Police Chief - $457,000 per year(plus perks of course)
Part Time City Council Members - $100,000 per year (plus perks of course)
I guess we shouldn't fault those part time city council members, after all they serve on several committees that meet for as much a 'one minute per month'!!!
According to a May 22, 2010 report in the Orange County Register, all local area small city managers are apparently grossly overpaid -- averaging $262,196 per year on average, but Bell's city manager makes them all look nickel and dime like, according to the LV Review-Journal!!
