The Indianapolis City-County Council did not hear a proposal to give council members raises Monday night. The measure was pulled from the agenda right before the meeting.

The proposal has caused some controversy. It was introduced less than four hours before Monday's council meeting and with less than two months left in current councilors' terms. Mayor Joe Hogsett says he will veto the proposal.

The council introduced a proposal hours before the meeting that would double council members' pay, currently at just more than $11,000 per year.

Incumbent Democrat Joe Hogsett collected more than 71 percent of the vote to win a second term as Mayor of Indianapolis. Democrats also picked up six seats on the Indianapolis City-County-Council, adding to their majority.

The council passed the $1.2 billion budget 22-2. It includes increased funding for the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department and Indianapolis Fire Department and $500,000 for food insecurity initiatives.

The training facility will include a three-story live burn structure and a fire training tower. IFD currently rents space at the Emergency Services Education Center.

The development at 421 N. Pennsylvania St. will include retail and office space and 213 residential apartment units.

The taxi industry in Indianapolis works under strict regulations more strict than those levied on transportation network companies, such as Uber and Lyft.

Indianapolis City-County Councilors work part-time and make about $11,400 dollars a year. But many say it's simply not a part-time job.

The largest allocations from the city go to three categories: 22% for public safety initiatives, 25% for the broadly defined "public services," and 38% for criminal justice services.
