Council & Leadership

Mayor, deputy and 31 council members of Municipality of Bitola

Leadership

Municipality of Bitola does not publish pay per person, so the monthly leadership figures are estimates. Council allowances follow a formula from ZPNIIL: at most 70% of the average net salary for municipalities over 50,001 inhabitants, plus 30% for the president. The amount is fixed by the budget execution decision. Budget figures are annual, per program. «Source» links to the PDF page.
