Okay, I will give my honest opinion...I was surprised, well, maybe shocked,
when Johnson
gave Belton the position in the first place. SSB had lost the mayoral
position, but husband Steve got a job
paying $80,000+, filling a position *Diversity* which had not been filled
for years. My
memory says 13... but someone might know for sure.
At the time of Gov. Carlson...school administration ate up 85% of monies.
Don't know what is going on
now. I am leaning towards Peebles in this fight..I think we need to give her
a chance. At least let her
work out her contract. Perhaps this is where the true riff is coming from
and the powers that would
like to be are getting moved on out. Let Peebles do what she needs to do and
what she was hired to do.
All the salaries in the City of Minneapolis seem to be excessive to me...of
course, we compete with
Chicago, Palm Beach, Miami...Chicago has 2,869,121 residents...Palm Beach
has 1,137,000 residents
and ranks 3rd in the nation for one million dollar homes followed by Miami
which sports fourth in the nation.
with only 87,000 residents. Minneapolis with it's 382,618 (2000) residents
and with higher salaries than national average...
seems to be playing with the big boys!! Yup...they are excessive!

,>I have many thoughts on the article cited. However, I will bite, er uh,
start with the financial one since MSP is facing (another round) of such
deep cuts.
Why is Belton's 9 month contract for $122,625? I have an honest question
that I would like to hear opinions on. Does that seem to be excessive?

A grant supporting Belton's job was not renewed, and he may leave the
district soon, School Board members say.
