The salary debate isn't over but the head of the North Okanagan Regional District board doesn't believe there should be increases for local politicians at this time. Chairperson Herman Halvorson says directors are going to take another look at proposed hikes, which could see his salary climb five percent starting next year and directors' rates go up two percent. ``If they do decide to endorse that, anything that was in the form of a raise I would donate to charity...my portion,'' says Halvorson. He says other members of the board are also uncomfortable with giving themselves a raise at this time.
