That is a shocking development precisely because little of this actually impacts the average taxpayer. We are talking about a roughly $7000 difference in pay per person in the new system versus the old system. For the five members of the
Yes, I know there are principles involved, but there is also a level of absurdity involved as well.
First, there is the election cost to the taxpayer. I will have to find out what this process will cost the taxpayers, but it would not surprise me if it amounted to close to one year’s worth of the board’s pay raise. So you cost the taxpayers more money in order to save them money.

This could be instructive as we all recognize that our School Board is a political stepping stone to our City Council.
