Attachment
from Trustee Frayer:
I want the minutes to reflect why I’m voting NO. It has nothing to do with the name we were
given. We were told by the Mayor we
would have some names to look at. When
only one name came forward and the vacation benefit being looked at is more
than should be given. We should have
advertised to see what would come forward, and I’m more concerned for our
present employee’s feelings.
