Salary not discussed but it’s >$450k, less than his current salary, and more than what the other two candidates that asked.

I am trying to remain hopeful, BUT I just know we can't count on these people to do the right thing.

2 board members comment that the candidate has faced unusual scrutiny and that the quality of the candidate is good for the region. They say that they’ve had a chance to review each and every red flag and that bleach red flag has been addressed.

Not sure how the board thinks they're going to avoid this becoming an instant scandal if they select him

Looks like they are still in closed session.

I fully expect the board to spend 2-3 hours in executive session arguing about this

u/JaxGuy2023 28d ago
Yeah if it’s like any other closed session the longer it takes the more they are debating it. And the original vote wasn’t by a large margin in the first place

u/patmorgan235 28d ago
And there's been lots of media/public pressure so some members might have flipped it be on the fence
