Your Thursday evening update on Salem news
Good evening….
The city of Salem wants more of your money.
That’s the simple message in proposals being considered by the Salem City. Council to keep services and expand the city payroll.
Speaking of payroll, one way the city is considering is a new payroll tax – to be paid by employees working within the city of Salem.
Reporter Abbey McDonald has our initial report on what’s being considered at City Hall. Expanding police and fire services and putting more money into homeless services are part of the multi-million dollar mix.

Salem Reporter’s new obituary service
Our digital obituary service is now available to anyone. It’s easy to use, more generous with space and photos than most, and priced to be affordable.
We have guidelines and an online form to use, but here are the basics:
*Obituary text has no limit (but no book-length submissions, please).
*Up to five photos can be loaded to share – not just one.
*Obituaries first appear in our obituary section, then in a summary of the week’s obituaries. That summary then appears on our Facebook and Twitter channels.
*The price is a flat $100.
Go HERE to use the submission form.
