Residents slam council’s actions
Residents polled oppose loss of economic chief
“We don’t need an economic development director,” she said.
Ashtabula resident Joe Senger, 89, said he believes the manner in which the city has been paying McFarland is illegal. He doesn’t believe 100 percent of McFarland’s salary should be drawn from the wastewater treatment fund.
“You can’t pay somebody out of the wrong fund,” he said.
Some city officials receive a portion of their paychecks from the wastewater treatment fund because their jobs are tied to the wastewater treatment plant, City Auditor Michael Zullo said. For example, public works employees receive all of their paychecks from that fund, while 20 percent of the city auditor’s paycheck is drawn from that fund.
McFarland said she has been advised not to comment on her job being canceled.
