North Frontenac Staff Wages
This page keeps the North Frontenac salary record readable. Staff pay comes from Ontario sunshine-list files. Mayor and council pay comes from the Township's itemized annual remuneration statements. Nothing here is estimated.
The current mayor and council page archived on March 18, 2026 now lists Mike Hage. The latest itemized council pay statement covers calendar 2025 and was reported on February 27, 2026, so it still includes Stephanie Regent instead.

Notes
- Staff pay comes from Ontario's public sector salary disclosure files. It only shows people who crossed the annual disclosure threshold in that year.
- Council pay comes from the Township's itemized annual remuneration and expenses statements under section 284 of the Municipal Act.
- NFNM is not estimating wages or expenses that are not named in an official record.
The local build still keeps the older sunshine-list files and council statements needed for year-over-year checks. The page only shows the pieces that are easiest to read.
