“IS IT TRUE” January 30, 2019 EID

We hope that today’s “IS IT TRUE” will provoke honest and open dialogue concerning issues that we, as responsible citizens of this community, need to address in a rational and responsible way?

IS IT TRUE reported in the Courier and Press that the salaries of Armstrong and two other full-time staff members add up to $257,000 per year or about 37 percent of the EID yearly budget? … it’s been alledged by several sources that the EID Board Of Directors may have just approved giving Mr, Armstrong a $9,000 to $10,000 raise increase? …we hope that this information is inaccurate and that his salary increase for the year was in the $900 to $1,000 range? …in fact, it’s reasonable to believe that someone made a mistake by adding an extra zero to his alleged salary increase?
