In Case You Were Wondering
I’ve had quite a few e-mails and calls about when the Washington Township Board meets. The Board meets this Thursday at 6:15 p.m. at the Trustee’s Office at 1595 E. 86th Street to vote on its budget. That budget includes a nice big pay raise. The raise would take the part-time advisory board’s salary from $2200 to $3800 annually.
The township board is only required to meet four times a year, so in theory these guys are techinically making $950.00 a meeting. And remember, the township doesn’t have a fire department to manage anymore. So there’s nothing like a near 70-percent raise when you have 80-percent less work to supervise.
Nice work if you can get it.
