The dispute over the payroll position started several weeks ago when Giuliano offered the Board of Education’s assistant payroll supervisor position to a candidate that board hadn’t recommended. The board then froze the position and posted an advertisement seeking a temporary payroll coordinator, and offered the job to another applicant.
A local artist had this response:
Only the Middletown Taxpayers can make their point by voting in the November elections. Vote to tell the BOE to stop wasting our hard earned tax dollars on frivilious law suits, and improve the education of our kids. Vote out current BOE members up for re-election. Send a messsage!
ReplyDeleteNice going Board of Ed.
ReplyDeleteThe Mayor appoints a legitimate
applicant to the payroll job.
Then the Board of Ed gives the
job to the son-in-law of a counsel
person! Obviously the Board of Ed can't spell N-E-P-I-T-I-S-U-M !
Dear anonymous - You may have a problem with it as well. It's actually Nepotism with an O.
ReplyDeleteIt is not just the BOE it is the Democrats as well. Judge Holtzberg is husband of former Democratic Mayor Maria Holzberg, and a neighbor of Frechette. How can he be impartial judging the Democratic BOE's misconduct when the Democratic council members such as Kasper are the one's being judged? It does not seem fair. He needs to recuse himself.
ReplyDeleteAnother issue- the BOE didn't even go hire the applicant they wanted first time through after dismissing the mayor's choice- they changed their minds and gave it to a relative! What happened to their first choice?? I am happy the mayor is standing up to this behavior-
ReplyDeletePeople who say this is a waste of time and money to fight just one position just one favor for the someone's relative, clearly don't understand that if this is allowed to happen who knows how far the misconduct would go with jobs becoming scarcer-
Don't blame everything on the BoE. Remember it was the mayor who started the fight when he illegally shut down Central Office because his snitch said that they were shreding documents. This turned out to be false after costing the taxpayers $10,000.00+ in police overtime.

ReplyDeleteMayor is bringing BOE to court. The BOE acts like they dont know whats the problem.
For the record - it is not just the BOE. The Mayor is just as childish wasting our tax dollars fighting the BOE. We need ALL of these people out of office. If only there was a decent candidate running against the mayor...
ReplyDeleteYou're right. Let's all just let the BOE do whatever they want like sovereign nation. I am sorry it cost money to go to court, but to stop the BS and put the focus back on the kids its worth it- too many part time jobs given as favors- it needed to stop and someone had to stand up to the mess and mockery of the tax payers! Too bad the judge is bias clearly. Kasper wrote a despicable letter on the Press today basically saying well if Seb doesn't have to play fair in her opinion why do I have to? Why can't I hire my relative too? wahhhh wahh. I really wonder how she sleeps at night-
