Check it out yourself if you don't believe me. Remember the CEO is a paid officer where Box is only an elected councillor.
All the council wages are on the website, they then get a bonus if they get on the cabinet and Box gets a further bonus for being the leader. His wage is no where near as much as the CEO.
