Marilee Fowler to be paid $43,383
In a move that the City County Observer predicted and approves of the new board of directors of the Evansville Convention and Visitors Bureau has decided to settle the lawsuit filed by Marilee Fowler for a sum of $43,383.
Half of the proceeds will be paid by the insurer of the CVB and the other half will be coming from CVB funds.
This decision will remove one of the objections that would surely have a negative affect on the ability of the CVB to attract a replacement for Ms. Fowler. We applaud this decision by the new board of directors as an act of good public policy and encourage them to continue making good decisions that will enable Evansville to move forward with all of its goals to become a desirable tourist destination.
It is a shame that a good employee had to sue to receive her money and then has to pay her Attorney to do it also. How horrible. I’m sure that Marilee Fowler wanted to get on with life. At least this new board decided to do this also, but, they still need to get rid of the 20 year term wink, wink, lawyer and the ad agency. Clean House all of the way. There is still a cloud over that board…getting better, but, still a stinch.
Hope the BEST for Marilee and her family. God be with her! Top Notch, and Classy Lady. She was always smarter than them.
