An ordinance adopted under this division that fixes the annual compensation of an elected town officer shall provide for an annual, monthly, or biweekly salary schedule. An elected town officer is not required to report hours worked and may not be compensated based on the number of hours worked. The Town Council shall provide reasonable compensation for other town officers and employees. (‘82 Code, § 3-100)
(B) The compensation of an elected town officer may not be changed in the year for which it is fixed, nor may it be reduced below the amount fixed for the previous year.

(2) Subject to the approval of the Town Council, the administrative agency operating the utility or function shall fix the amount of the additional compensation, which shall be paid from the revenues of the utility or function.
(D) As used in this section, “COMPENSATION” means the total of all money paid to an elected officer for performing duties as a town officer, regardless of the source of funds from which money is paid. The term includes all employee benefits paid to an elected town officer, including life insurance, health insurance, disability insurance, retirement benefits, and pension benefits. For purposes of determining an increase or decrease in compensation of an elected town officer, the term does not include any of the following:

(3) Payment of a stipend or per diem allowed by statute;
(4) A payment authorized under division (C).
(E) Any appointed member of any Board or Commission of the town except any member of the Town Council, may elect to waive receipt of payment of compensation for services as that appointed Board or Commission member. This waiver, if so made, shall be on a form for such purposes and in a written submission to the Town Clerk-Treasurer. Upon receipt of such a written waiver, the Town Clerk-Treasurer shall report the same to the Council.
