The technical answer is that the board does not directly manage staff other than the superintendent, their lawyer and a secretary who is not a member of the board. The Board must have a superintendent that can effectively carry out the board's directives. Absent that, they must select another superintendent. I haven't talked about this to any one, but it might be helpful if the board in January selected a secretary for the board was not also trying to direct board actions as a staff person. I would also add that any Commissioner who has recieved money from the current lawyer or his law firm must refrain from voting on whether he should be selected as the Board's lawyer. Thanks, Scott Vreeland Park Board candidate and mapmaker REMINDERS: 1. Be civil! Please read the NEW RULES at http://www.e-democracy.org/rules.
