Slick Negotiators?

It seems the 36% pay raise that was given to the Selectmen's Secretary has been resolved to her satisfaction.

Minutes of Executive Sessions should be public when a matter is resolved.

Shouldn't they be posted on the Town's Web Site as public information?

Since the Middleboro BOS are such slick negotiators, wouldn't it seem as if the voters, that is, those Town Meeting Voters who found the salary increase to $66,000 per year unacceptable, would be anxious to understand what a great task the BOS had accomplished?

Aren't these the folks who just hired a Town Accountant? Was that the Accountant who was paid $63,000 by his previous employer, the Town of Freetown? And Middleboro hired him at the bargain rate of $75,000 per year? Ooops! That's a 4 day work week!
Is that 10 hour days? Not specified in the contract! Did you notice the Confidentiality Agreement attached to that contract? Next time the Accountant finds the tv set charged to the Town, you won't hear about it!

Good work guys!
