San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg and his City Council colleagues could see their salaries more than double next year — if a commission’s recommendations get approval both from voters and council itself. During Monday’s council meeting, the city’s Charter Review Commission subcommittee on council pay and compensation, led by Trinity University Chief of Staff Luisa Casso, unveiled recommendations for a substantial bump in pay for city elected officials. The subcommittee recommended that council members pay jump from $45,722 to as high as $125,000 — a 173% increase.
