From the City of Middletown workbook.... TO: Doug Adkins, City Manager FROM: Noah Powers III, Assistant Law Director SUBJECT: APPOINTMENT – ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT We are recommending the appointment of JAMIE NICOLE CLARK to the position of Administrative Assistant in the Department of Public Works & Utilities, Division of Administration. Ms. Clark is currently employed as a Secretary III in the department. She was interviewed and selected by Scott Tadych, Public Works & Utilities Director. She will replace Michelle Evans who was appointed to Contracts Administrator. Ms. Clark will be assigned to Salary Range 187, Step E, which provides a salary of $1,584.16 bi-weekly, $41,188.16 annually. The effective date of the appointment is March 18, 2015. /ks Anyone think the $41 thou salary is a tad bit over the top for this position? Check out the drivel that is the various committee meeting notes. Comical and rubber stamped to the hilt. ------------- I'm so proud of my hometown and what it has become. Recall 'em all. Let's start over. |

Hard to comprehend how taxpayers tolerate the waste of the city and Butler Cty. The 're-imagination' rubbage just is a slogan, not an action otem. The pay per hr for the admin assistant referenced is $19.80 an hour, plus benefits. That's a secretary which would make about 10.00 at a temp agency with same experience. Betsy Parr acting as secretary for all those superb council members retired making nearly 70,000 annually. Time to rethink....pardon me, 're-imagine' the city payscale. Water and utilities hell of a cash cow. ------------- 'An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.' - Winston Churchill |

The large company I work for maxs out support level staff at about $40,000. And that's usually a level for employees of at least 20-25 years with the company.
Congratulations Ms. Clark, welcome to Easy Street -- no big pressure, no fear of layoff, and a starring role in holiday videos on city time!

Just as a side note for accuracy.... The memo to Adkins gives the title for Noah Powers III as Asst. Law Director. I thought Noah Powers III was the manager of HR in past memos. Either the memo has a major typo or he transitioned from the HR dept to the law dept in record time.....and probably without a law degree. Only in the city building.....  ------------- I'm so proud of my hometown and what it has become. Recall 'em all. Let's start over. |
