Sažetak
Mayors have power to determine the level of their salaries. In this paper, we have investigated salaries of Croatian mayors and their deputies by using the latest available data from their property statement. Goal of this research is to investigate which factors determine the salary level of mayors and their deputies. In our econometrics model, we use OLS method to determine salaries by controlling for numerous explanatory variables (individual and city characteristics) such as population, budget expenditure, gender, political party, education, proxy for economic development and experience of a politician.
