Schiller Park School District 81 Teachers Union is Entering into negotiations for a new teachers contract since the current contract is expiring at the end of this school year !!!

January 10, 2012 – 12:21pm

 

 

The Board of Education of District 81 needs to look closely at this section of the current teachers’ contract : 

 

“1003 - Retirement Fund Contributions.

The Board shall pick-up and pay the teachers’ nine percent (9%) contributions to the State of

Illinois Teachers’ Retirement System (not to exceed a factor of .098901). In the event that a

referendum for Education Fund and PTELL increase is approved in February 2008, the pick-up rate

paid by the District shall be 9.4% (not to exceed a factor of .103753).”

How can the taxpayers continue to fund these costs ? 

Not only does the District pay their side of the contribution but they are also paying the teachers required contribution to the pension fund.  

 How many residents, who have jobs, get to have their employer fund their pension by paying their side of the contribution as well  ?

Every time the teachers get a pay raise the pension cost contribution also increases !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What is this Board of Education thinking  ?

During this contract negotiations the Board of Education needs to remove this clause and save the taxpayers’ over a million dollars a year !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 For a teacher making $50,000 a year for 8and a half months the taxpayer is giving them an extra $5,000 a year to their pension  !!!

Then on top of paying the teachers’ contribution the Board of Education offers them an incentive during the referendum push to walk the streets and “con” the taxpayers into paying for a large increase in their taxes.  No wonder the teachers were out knocking doors !!!!     The teachers actually got paid to encourage the taxpayers to approve the referendum increases.  

You can read the entire text of the Schiller Park School District 81 Teachers contract at :   http://www.publicschoolspending.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Schiller-Park-School-District-81.pdf

So Why Has the “Diaper Don” and Mayor Anna M passed over Sgt. John L’s Brother-In-Law again for a Job in the Public Works Department ???

December 19, 2011 – 5:30pm

So when another job became open in the Village of Schiller Park Public Works Department, why did the “Diaper Don” and Mayor Anna M not give Sgt. John L’s brother-in-law the job ?

Is this a situation of the “Diaper Don” maximizing his use of Sgt. John L and giving John L only a minimal return  ?

Is Sgt. John L tOooooooooo…….close to Ken Mc ?????????????

Suburban police auctions move online

 

Brent Tiff of propertyroom.com and Elgin Public Safety Supervisor Russ Matson load a truck at the Elgin Police Department. Elgin is joining a long list of suburban departments working with propertyroom.com to auction off found, seized or surplus items instead of holding auctions once or twice a year and storing all the items in between those dates.

Spending concerns at Schiller Park School District 81 are not about spending money on education, but rather the spending by the Superintendent on new office suite furniture and painting offices in Kim’s favorite colors which are costing the taxpayers thousands of dollars that could be spent on accelerated classes for the students !!!

Concerns are on how the money is being spent on perks for the administrators !!!!!!!!!!

For those of you who could not, or did not attend last night’s School District 81 Board meeting, you missed a rather chilling event.
While it is understandable that Board President Desecki can’t possibly know the answer to every question posed her from taxpayers, or the Board for that matter it should be noted that out of the 15 or so questions Terry Doody did ask she might know the answer to one. Instead, Board President Desecki sarcastically asked Terry if he was a Reporter or a Citizen when he raised his hand with a question after she opened the floor. Upon completion of each question Doody posed, Desecki indicated that the “Public Information Officer would follow up with the answers to his questions, however due to her not being at work for personal reasons he shouldn’t expect answ…ers to his questions until after the holidays!
I am starting to understand why Board member Dave Stachura would submit FOIA requests for questions he has of Board members when it comes to retrieving information of interest to the public. For a 3 school district, they employ a FOIA Officer and a Public Information Officer.
Another Citizen asked questions about the Board being able to justify the proposed tax levy which would amount by the Boards’ presentation to roughly $63 per residence, based on a $200,000 assessed value. No answer was available. Additionally, the resident asked why the Board authorized the purchase of six (6) new school buses, to which no one on the Board could answer.
Lastly, the contempt and sarcasm that was cast upon anyone that asked questions or made comments of the Board is absolutely beyond the pale. These Board Members must know that they are representatives of the tax paying body encompassed in School District 81. The funds of the District are not for spending at their leisure, to include parties, unnecessary furniture purchases, unnecessary new painting and decorating to suite THEIR tastes, etc.
Please be responsible with our money.
