  • 25-2017 Raise Salaries For Certain Part-Time Clerks Defeated w/Conway, DiMartino & Matters voting “No”.   

Some new 2016 EG1ST-appointed P-T Clerks got raises in January 2017.  Now, older, experienced, longer-serving P-T Tax Collector Clerks earn LESS than these younger, newer ones. A mistake?  A big person admits their mistakes. A bigger person corrects them! Or is it AGE DISCRIMINATION?  Fix it now!
