Aspen TimesSnowmass Town Hall. Snowmass elected officials are giving their successors — and potentially themselves — a raise. The council on May 14 unanimously directed town staff to prepare an ordinance formalizing the increase in compensation, which would not go into effect until after the November election. “I didn’t know we got paid,” councilman Tom Goode joked during the work session. Snowmass Town Council members are currently paid $12,000 annually, while the mayor earns $20,400, town spokesman Travis Elliot said.
