          against the pay increase.
        
        
          The Romulus Officers
        
        
          Compensation Commission met
        
        
          last year and recommended 2-
        
        
          percent raises for the mayor,
        
        
          clerk and treasurer, but did not
        
        
          recommend an increase in
        
        
          compensation for the members
        
        
          of the city council, who serve on
        
        
          a part-time basis. The commis-
        
        
          sion meets on odd years and
        
        
          their recommendations auto-
        
        
          matically go into effect unless
        
        
          they are voted down by a super-
        
        
          majority of the council-in other
        
        
          words, five votes, rather than
        
        
          four.
        
        
          Abdo made the motion to
        
        
          reject the raises.
        
        
          “I think the timing is bad,”
        
        
          she said. “We just elected our
        
        
          officials two months ago, and I
        
        
          just don't think it's the time to be
        
        
          giving raises at this point.”
        
        
          Williams agreed. She said
        
        
          the commission recommended
        
        
          and the council approved raises
        
        
          two years ago.
        
        
          “I think they should wait
        
        
          until 2019, when they meet
        
        
          again, before they consider rais-
        
        
          es,” she said.
        
        
          Council members first dis-
        
        
          cussed the issue at a December
        
        
          meeting, but tabled it until they
        
        
          could hear from members of
        
        
          the commission directly. Timing
        
        
          was a concern then, too. At that
        
        
          meeting, Wadsworth pointed
        
        
          out that residents would proba-
        
        
          bly be asked for an additional
        
        
          schoolmillage.
        
        
          Councilwoman Tina Talley
        
        
          said she favored the increase
        
        
          even though the officials
        
        
          received raises two years ago.
        
        
          Prior that increase, it had been
        
        
          10 years since the elected offi-
        
        
          cials inRomulus had seen a pay
        
        
          raise.
        
        
          We just elected our officials
        
        
          two months ago, and I just
        
        
          don't think it's the time
        
        
          to be giving raises at this point.

          What's coming in 2018? More
        
        
          of the same. Burcroff said the
        
        
          city would focus on the down-
        
        
          town economy, by becoming a
        
        
          Redevelopment
        
        
          Ready
        
        
          Community and using innovative
        
        
          funding sources like creating
        
        
          foundations for public safety, the
        
        
          downtown and the senior center
        
        
          to solicit donations to help fund
        
        
          projects or programs. The city
        
        
          would also develop a plan for the
        
        
          1,000 acres of open land along
        
        
          Vining Road-land that had been
        
        
          planned for a regional outlet
        
        
          center last year.
        
        
          “We're blessed that we have
        
        
          undeveloped land. We just have
        
        
          to do the right thing with it,”
        
        
          Burcroff said. “We've got to take a
        
        
          fresh look.”
        
        
          Another way to help spark
        
        
          development is to develop an
        
        
          inventory list of all available
        
        
          properties and their potential
        
        
          uses to help entrepreneurs find
        
        
          the right location for their proj-
        
        
          ects, he added.
        
        
          “Right now, we're taking them
        
        
          all around the city. We're showing
        
        
          them all different things,”
        
        
          Burcroff said. “We want to zero
        
        
          in towhat their needs are.”
        
        
          Romulus will also develop a
        
        
          sidewalk program this year and
        
        
          ultimately tap into the “Oasis”
        
        
          project under way at Detroit
        
        
          Metro Airport. That plan,
        
        
          designed to upgrade the
        
        
          entrance to the airport, will
        
        
          eventually include walking and
        
        
          biking paths around the perime-
        
        
          ter that Romulus can tap into,
        
        
          Burcroff said. Those kinds of
        
        
          partnerships and innovative
        
        
          funding, he added, would help
        
        
          keep services up and taxes low.
        
        
          “We owe it to the taxpayers to
        
        
          make sure they're getting value
        
        
          forwhat they're paying,” he said.
        
        
          The presentation drew praise
        
        
          from residents, business leaders
        
        
          and officials from neighboring
        
        
          communities alike.
        
        
          “He's really got everyone
        
        
          rolling in the right direction,”
        
        
          saidWestlandMayorBillWild.

          “The direction that Romulus
        
        
          is heading has been evolving
        
        
          since the mayor took over,” he
        
        
          said. “The way to do business in
        
        
          the City of Romulus is so much
        
        
          better than it used to be because
        
        
          of his concepts and the way he's
        
        
          leading the community.”
