Grindstafl said he would donate $100 of his monthly pay of $300 to the city to help out the city's ailing budget but the rest of the board was mum on the subject. Mayor Pro tem Rick Murphrey called for the vote. Mayor Scott Neisler, who ar- rived about 10 minutes late for the 7 p.m. budget workshop at City Hall, said he donated $120 a year from his annual salary of $6,000 to be applied to a scholarship for a deserving Kings Mountain student to Gardner-Webb College "We're asking a lot from each department head and cach city em- ployee and it behooves each of us to try to help out to get the budget back on line,” said Grindstaff. in making his motion. "Giving a part of our salary back to the city will show our token of help in this emergency situation.” he said. After he received no response, Grindstaft said he was disappoint- ed but he would still donate $100 a month. He authorized Interim Manager Maxine Parsons to with- draw $100 from his monthly check, reducing his annual pay from $3600 10 $2400
