Hamilton City Council boss talks salary after $60,000 raiseCHRISTEL YARDLEY/FAIRFAX NZ 'Everything I'm doing - and they can argue with that or not - is trying to make sure that we deliver value to the ratepayers,' Hamilton City Council chief executive Richard Briggs says. The Hamilton City Council chief executive's salary isn't too shabby either, at $440,000. His recent raise of $60,000 is bigger than many ratepayers' annual pay packets, and he acknowledges that. "Having worked for Fonterra and Hamilton City Council, I think council's harder." Hamilton City Council's most recent annual report listes assets worth $3.7b, an annual revenue of $268m, and 1093 employees.
