Westfield Town Administrator Jim Gildea's Pot of Gold......the Town Council

     Two weeks ago, at a meeting of the Westfield Town Council, council members approved an ordinance that increased the salary of Town Administrator Jim Gildea.
Westfield Patch.com  has listed the salary range in the new ordinance as $105,997 - $160,830.

     When local Police, Fire, DPW, and CWA employees are receiving less than 2% raises, should Gildea be compensated above the 2% cap that Governor Christie has levied on property tax increases?
     Go to the following link to review Gildea's salary compensation for 2011.  (Note: Gildea also receives the use of a taxpayer funded vehicle, fuel, auto insurance, and maintenance.)

Based on Gildea's 2011 salary of $143,920........a 2% raise would amount to a $2878.40 increase. 

     Why was there a need to increase the town administrator's salary range to $160,830?   Is this an example of Mayor Skibitsky's "Doing more with less" claim?
