In reply to the discussion: Republican Forest Preserve Official Goes Cuckoo [View all]ConcernedCitizens
(20 posts)President Pierotti gets $107,000 a year and the 6 Commissioners get $53,500 a year for part time positions which includes full time benefits and a taxpayer subsidized pension. They are getting this whether or not they ask questions. That is outrageous! In addition, they accept campaign contributions from companies doing business with the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County. That is unethical and should be illegal.
ALL 6 COMMISSIONERS are up for reelection this year. Three old Republican Commissioners (Schultz, Formento and Kotecki) are heading out the door only to be replaced by new do nothing GOPbots. In contrast for the first time there are 6 qualified candidates running for Commissioner from the Democratic party. They all have experience in volunteering and working with forest preserves, trails and restoration of them. Give them your consideration and some money since none of them will take money from any company doing business with the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County.
