After reading an article yesterday in the Salem Evening News I was left wondering if proper procedures were being followed in the PMLP? As you know, if you read the same article, William Waters the manager of the plant and highest paid city employee was handed a 1 year extension on his contract. Not too big of a deal right?? He has also obliged the commissioners request to keep the same compensation during his last year on the job...great right? He plans to retire after 2011.
Now here is where it gets a bit tricky...Also written in the Salem Evening News was that it was also requested that Waters choose his own replacement from someone with-in the PMLP. First of all, isn't this a public position that has to be properly advertised to the public? Secondly, doesn't it sound a bit mischievous on Mr. Chairman's/commission's behalf to present this request?
HERE is your story.
If you can comment I would like to hear what you think about this issue.
Until Next Time, Let Freedom Ring!
