Non-Union Salary Ordinance
The Sewer Board proposed raising the Sewer Office Manager's Salary to $1300 - bi- weekly. This is a 33.5% raise. Again I have heard from the multitudes so please find the sheets submitted in one of your budget hearings with all the non-union employees listed, with their length of service and their income. I'm just the messenger so don't assume my feelings on this sisution.
Also attached, please find the elected officials' salaries presented at one of your budget hearings. You did not respond when I indicted this had to be advertised for passage in September. Again, you have until December 31 to pass this ordiance. I would have to advertise and publish these salaries thirty (30) days before your last meeting in December which is long before December 31. Of course, you can do it in October or November.
Just remember I have to publish 30 days before the date you adopt.

Fringe Benfits
Freedom Of Speech would like to ask;
* How can you raise our "sewer bills" and now give raises?
* Who are these people?
* Why is Kelly worth 33.5% and everybody else is only worth 3% pay increase?
* How is Kelly doing her job when delinquents are not being "actually" sought after?
* Silver Creek & Borden Tri County pay only sewer to New Albany at a higher rate than city.
* What determines a raise? Going above and beyond your required duties, being proactive instead of reactive. Kelly has not done her job in an efficent manner. Look at the billing errors and lack of customer service.
You do know what assume means Mrs. Garry? Never assume the taxpayer's will sit lightly with raising our sewer bills and handing out a raise to anyone employed in the Sewer Department.
footnote: These dollar amounts listed are bi-weekly pay.
