Like I said before, these EDH board members are nothing but “big fish in a small pond.” Sac-State and Chico are not exactly known for educating geniuses….

And yes, I hope Mr. Skeel gets tons in punitive damages. These bozos need a dose of humility and humanity: firing Mr. Skeel a few weeks before Christmas – nice, real nice.

Please attend the Board of Directors Special Meeting on Tuesday, January 3, 2012 at 6:00 PM in the Parks Conference Room. The board will be discussing the Interim General Manager position.

Now is the time to voice your concerns!

This board has lost all credibility and can’t be trusted. Why hire a bunch of interim directors and waste even more money? These positions have been vacant for up to 3 years in the case of the recreation director. I think the CSD can survive another 6 months until they can hire a permanent GM. This board needs to get out of day to day operations and meddling with the CSD and put all their efforts into getting a dedicated GM. Then let that professional hire full time directors and get the CSD back on track. I don’t see the benefit in hiring part time interim directors and an interim GM unless they are being brought in to do the boards dirty work before a new GM is hired.

Why does the CSD employ a full time HR director if she doesn’t have the skill set to recruit a new GM? Maybe Skeel was right about outsourcing HR. Recruiters typically charge 1/3 of the salary of the person they are recruiting so we are talking another 40K plus for the recruiting costs for Skeel’s replacement. What a waste! Apparently the board thinks the CSD has money to burn but I for one am tired of seeing my money wasted.
