The entir ething is a scam. They petition to protest in a town or city, when they are denied, or run out, their lawyers sue the city, settling for no less than $250,000 per city. They never have to run it to court, because they will win a discrimination suit, so the cities pay up. Bigger towns and cities have been hit up for over 1 million dollars. It is estimated that their frivolous lawsuits have brought in over $74 million dollars. There are only 80 people in the church, and they split the money. It has cost taxpayers in excess of $150 million so far in litigation, attorney fees and settlements.

I don't know about Irvine, CA but many state and local governments pay by the month.  It is probably because it is cheaper from an administrative standpoint.  It's difficult to budget for that when one is used to being paid weekly or twice per month.

The town council is usually made up of elected officials who make decisions as to laws, budgets, spending money and how the community is generally run.  The chamber of commerce is a group of individuals who do things to support and promote the town.  Some may be on the city payroll and some may be volunteers, but they are not usually elected.  Their goal is to promote the town, bring in tourists who bring in cash and be a positive force for the town.  Hope that helps.

The living wage law didn't pass (I think they were trying for $7.50, not $9.50 if I recall properly).  \n\nBut here's what I can find on the new minimum wage laws for Albuquerque next year:\n\nhttp://www.cabq.gov/planning/nbrcoord/councilmessage.html\n\nSanta Fe does have a living wage for larger employers, but I'm not sure what the numbers are...

If you are an hourly employee, yes they are required to pay you.  If they aren't, go up the chain of command and document it very well.  If you still don't have any results, then contact the Department of Labor.  This is considered "working off the clock" and is highly illegal.

I looked at the county's web page (the first link below) ut could not find anything about the salaries.  They should be in the public record but you may need to inquire directly with the county.\n\nOr, you could attend the monthly public meeting of the Salary & Retirement Board.  The second link contains the calendar of meetings.

they sign a form allowing there case to be shown and decided by the judge. they are paid what ever the court rules. they signed the contract. the only other thing if you want to call it "pay" is they don't have to pay court costs. or surcharges....

If you are commissioned only and you are an employee, not an independent contractor, then you have to get paid at least minimum wage.  Usually the way companies do this is by paying you a draw against your commissions.  If your commissions do not cover the draw, you still keep the draw money to satisfy the minimum wage requirement.
