Okay, let’s tackle this. So Mary has 50+ years of experience in public policy, which is a significant amount of time. However, her role as a city council associate in Minneapolis is a local government position, which tends to have lower pay rates compared to other industries or roles. Considering her extensive experience, I would estimate her hourly rate to be on the lower side of the scale, around $75 per hour. This is in line with what I would expect for a local government professional with similar experience and qualifications.
