About this Article

One of Wauconda's mayoral candidates is critical of the salaries earned by the town's police officers, calling the pay levels "unsustainable." When specifically asked if he thinks cops are overpaid, however, challenger Frank Bart wouldn't give a direct answer. Mayor Mark Knigge defended officers' paychecks.
