OUTRAGE AT ISLIP TOWN BOARD MEETING!

Members of the Conservative Society for Action attended the Islip Town Board meeting on October 14, 2009. Councilman Steve Flotteron offered three resolutions designed to save $750000. Supervisor Nolan and his supporters on the town board announced plans to lay off 70 low level employees to balance the budget. Nolan recently gave out "discretionary raises" to a number of high-level officials. Flotteron feels high-level town employees should share in the burden of a tough economy. He presented three resolutions: 1) High-paid officials should accept a temporary 10% cut in salary; 2) High-paid employees should contribute 15% of their cost of health insurance; and 3) Recent raises for high-paid officials should be rolled back. The three resolutions were defeated because NO other town board member would even second the motions. In short, Islip Town will balance the budget on the backs of their lowest-paid employees while giving out raises to high-level officials.
