Salisbury Eyes Efficiency With Executive Shuffling

SALISBURY -- A major restructuring of the executive branch in Salisbury would split responsibility for the city’s 11 departments across three different categories and would come with an estimated price tag of $60,400 in additional costs.

Proponents of the change assert that it would mean a major increase in governmental efficiency and break the “linear” nature of the current system. But city leadership questioned if the new salaries for top positions would keep Salisbury competitive.

“We view it as a growth opportunity. Not a growth of government but a growth of opportunity to serve the citizens in a more cohesive manner,” Salisbury Fire Chief Rick Hoppes told the council Monday.

Of course this clown would make a statement like this. He doesn't mind spending Other Peoples Money! He would step on his mother to get to the top.

Hoppes needs to go. I bet his ego is so big now he thinks he is now qualified to be the City Administrator.
