Fort Frances town councillors will earn their first pay increase in seven year this December.
Councillors voted last night to rescind a 2-year delay on increases approved earlier this year.
Andrew Hallikas was the only councillor to oppose the move.
"I think this council is under paid and there should be a raise," says Hallikas, "but since our rational was good originally, to me our rational is still good. I don't think anything has changed."
Council delayed the increases in April after the Premier asked municipalities to hold the line on wage increases due to the economy.
