Ottmann Raise, IT Reorg on BOE Agenda
School Business Administrator Gary Ottmann, who returned to the district in January, may see a 4.3 percent increase in his salary for the 2008-09 school year.
Ottmann, who formerly served 13 years in the district before a stint in Wayne, was hired in December at a salary of $155,000. His proposed new contract sets his salary at $161,588. The resolution that will be up for a board vote Tuesday states that the contract is "subject to the review and approval" of County Superintendent Carmen Centuolo.
Newly finalized contracts for two assistant superintendents have been approved by Centuolo, according to the agenda. Former Interim Superintendent Garnell Bailey is the assistant superintendent for Administrative Services and Angela Kemp is assistant superintendent for Educational Services. Both positions were created after the hiring of new Schools Superintendent Steve Gallon III. Bailey's salary was set at $149,550 and Kemp's at $142,750 in July.
Details of the three contracts were not spelled out.
The school board will also be asked Tuesday to approve a dozen new titles in Information Technology. A restructuring of the department has resulted in a decrease of eight positions at a savings of $250,000.

The business meeting is 7 p.m. at the administration building at 1200 Myrtle Avenue.

Should not the BOE as well as the city rethink large 4.5% salary increases in view of the present economic crisis, the minimal COLA increases and the difficulty senior citizens are having keeping up with the rapid rise in cost of living.
Is there no way that union contracts which help create inflation can be adjusted?
Why is it that Dr. Bailey and Ms. Kemp are making about $20,000 more than when the same Dr. Bailey's title was just supervisor of human resources and Lillie Sipp was supervisor of curriculum and instruction? Could the jobs be $20,000+ more complicated or are these new job titles a way to scam more dollars from the taxpayers?
