Annual salary? The term is June 1- Dec 31, So, is it $35k/ 1/2yr - or $71k/FULL year?

While I hate to miss another opportunity to see KR hauled off in handcuffs, I will be out of town checking on my out-of-state business interests and will have to miss the TB meeting.

DVR--not smart to attack KR.  They would not have had a right to haul her off as you say.  People are certainly intimidated by her directness--but she is one of the smartest folks I  have ever met in the political science world.  She should run for office...and you should wish she did it on the Dem line.

If KR is the smartest person you have ever met - then you hang around with a pretty unintelligent crowd.
And there is not much chance that she would ever get the Democratic endorsement for anything.

There is no chance at all because I would decline such a nomination...I would never run on the Demokratz ballot line.

Boomer has more intelligence and honesty in her pinky fingernail that you could ever hope to have in your whole pathetic
suck up life you moron...and she would never support a gang of thieves and schemers otherwise known as TJ and the REMS bandits.
Your sense of right and wrong is just as twisted as FDG and Bob Godlewski.

Good question! Rotterdamians should dig into this one!!!

It should be HALF of $35K......yes? $12,500!!!!!

They better clarify this one!!!

that is gonna be easy with $21,840 left in the budget on that line item

notice no mention of hours to be worked per day, week, month

the bigger question is why does it take over $70,000 in staff to support a $13,000 a year position

this appointment is unnecessary as the supervisor works for the people
