Way back last spring, the good Dr. Culver brought forward a situation report in the interests of securing equity for all staff.
"...it is in my heart to speak up for these 31employees and say let all employees take the pain at the same time."
---District Administrator Tim Culver
This would not make them entirely "whole" (e.g., they would have to pay FICA and other required taxes on the miscellaneous income), but on the district end there is no added cost above what is already in the budget. We would be spending funds that were not mandated by law to do so. But, please consider letting all employees take this pain at the same time. We aren't strapped for this $32,500 in this year’s budget - we had planned to use it to compensate these employees through June 30.---District Administrator Tim Culver
What happened to Culver's desire for equity? Three (3) GINORMOUS inequities remain. When will the school board/district do something to fix them?
1. Culver's Miscellaneous Funny Money
Culver's contract: l. In lieu of other expense reimbursement for miscellaneous costs incurred carrying out official duties, District Administrator shall receive $125 per month to defray miscellaneous out-of-pocket expenses.
Who gets ANY money for which no receipts are required? He can do nothing and just pocket the additional $125/month. People this kind of benefit exists no where else but Wall Street and school district administrators.
2. Culver's Mileage re-imbursement
Culver's contract: k. Flat monthly payment for the use of personal automobile of $325 per month for use in district and in Dane County.
Other administrators (gulp) got that rolled into salary and now must submit mileage reimbursement reports, like us normal folk. How come King Tim gets treated differently?
All employees EXCEPT Local 60 pay 5% of their dental insurance premiums. Local 60 get it all the way with a ted hot poker and pay 14.5%. Why are we stickin' it to the lowest paid employees?
