]]> Tue, 15 Apr 2014 03:40:31 UTC 17182935 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/17182810?utm_medium=rss What is one lubricated cog without the rest of a well oiled machine? I feel that singling out and lavishly rewarding the one from the many hard working people employed in the local authority is counter productive to fostering a cohesive and productive workforce. In addition to this, is it a given for the head of a local authority to earn an amount that can be seen as disproportionate to the wealth, growth and prosperity of the area he represents? Mr Cameron must think he's working in the wrong county/country. Last year Mr Mehmet's pay increased by approximately £30k. The Rhyl Suncentre was closed after funding was reduced by £50k for the year. How can you justify either?

]]> Tue, 15 Apr 2014 05:25:31 UTC 17181192 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/17181161?utm_medium=rss I vehemently oppose any proposed pay rise at a time when primary schools and leisure centres are being closed. It is morally indefensible to support such a pay rise when so many are struggling to pay their council tax. Having vital services slashed at the same time as a pay rise for the Chief Executive is an appalling, insensitive indictment of our Local Government system. With an ounce of decency or regard for the council tax payers they purport to serve, this proposal should be shelved with immediate effect. If Denbighshire County Council is really serious about the growing resentment from it's public, it will quickly see the folly and crass stupidity of this proposal. If they proceed with the proposal the inference could scarcely be more clear. This is an opportunity for Denbighshire County Council to try and regain some public trust. On the high streets and on the various social media forums, people are making their opposition known. DCC can either listen to the people or become a little more disengaged than they already are. I wouldn't have thought that was a choice and watch with interest to see how DCC choose to react - and it is a choice.

More to manage Denbighshire Council than for running the UK! Are councillors incapable of deciding how much he should be paid? A further waste of our money i.e. paying consultants to decide on the pay rise.

]]> Thu, 10 Apr 2014 02:27:11 UTC 17161597 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/17160635?utm_medium=rss Should have same payrise as all Council staff - his salary is much higher than anyone else's anyway, so he'll get more.

This is the council that pleads poverty - closing schools, local hospitals and other important community services. Now with the money they saved stabbing everyone in the back - they can now pat themselves on the back with a hefty pay increase. It is what we have come to expect of this council. Not there to make Denbighshire a fantastic place to live and work - just there to line their own pockets and leave with a nice pension pot. No surprises here unfortunately.

Council Tax is now such a huge bill that it is causing real hardship to many.
Why should the Council Tax payers of Denbighshire pay for this extremely excessive proposed pay increase?
This is on top of the revelation that Denbighshire County Council paid £1 million on external consultants. I am outraged by both.
Isn't it about time that more was done to stop Denbighshire County Council from spending our money too easily and to try to bring down the Council Tax to affordable levels?

]]> Wed, 9 Apr 2014 01:07:20 UTC 17157888 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/17157756?utm_medium=rss This is absolutely shocking coming at a time when services are being cut back. Mr Mehmet should realise this himself and make it absolutely clear that he will receive the same percentage increase as other council staff i.e. 1%. Many residents and local businesses are really struggling to pay increased council taxes and I resent it that Mr Mehmet is already receiving nearly £160,000, which puts him on a higher salary than the Prime Minister!! What's this, too, about residents having to fork out £3,556 for an independent consultant to advise on his performance appraisal? The world's gone mad!

]]> Wed, 9 Apr 2014 10:55:10 UTC 17157472 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/17157461?utm_medium=rss He gets paid more than the PM who runs the country, everyone else has to have 1% to no pay rise and the rest of us have cut backs to services.
