Summary
Metro Vancouver’s 2025 financial report reveals a drop in employee expenses by $1.2 million, bringing total spending to $3.5 million, alongside reduced board pay and travel costs — all as unionized workers prepare to strike. Chief Administrative Officer Jerry Dobrovolny, the top earner at $567,338, saw a $25,078 pay cut after a major prior jump, coinciding with a 25% property tax hike. His salary is defended as competitive with B.C. Hydro and TransLink. Board remuneration fell 22% due to fewer meetings, and travel expenses dropped 88% — while high earners’ pay remained steady. The report awaits committee review before full board approval. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
