from this Friday listing, I see that Ms. Adams is full speed ahead on expanding her Parks Department.
I don't believe she mentioned three new assistant parks directors at $70,720 - $96,460 on her 2006 list of tax promises... This is an "internal promotion" position only... meaning if you have a son or daughter with an MBA or beyond who is not already a part of the city... They need not apply. Sort of a "private club" public position.... I would suppose one could simply vote no on any new taxes, as one never knows what they will really do with the funds... “INTERNAL JOB POSTING ONLY” http://www.springfieldmo.gov/jobs/vacancy/3340.html This announcement applies only to persons who are receiving pay as regular full-time or regular part-time City employees, who meet the minimum qualifications outlined on the attached job description.
