This is an action making new or secret information known?

Is this a slam dunk, "resign and the job is yours"?

Dawn Benson in your words, this is a "promotional opportunity"?

Who are the other candidates for this position?

What are the qualifications for this position?

The district "is committed to transparency" Per Board President Ed Duarte.

Hmmmm, any bets on who is getting that job??? People don't resign from one position without some kind of a guarantee of another position! Keep an eye on this one PW, I'm thinking something sneaky is going on.

Im sure Ms Bensen is a knowledgeable and capable individual but on face it seems inappropriare from a potential conflict of interest standpoint. At least the bylaws should require a minum separation time between board election and employment to avoid such.

Like I said, " keep an eye on this one" there's going to be a little soft shoe razzle dazzle, a little behind the closed door voting and the magic happens---- poof, benson is in, what a surprise!!

This position, district executive services supervisor reportedly pays well, over 125K year, plus benefits, pension, etc., all of which had to be approved by the board on which Dawn Benson served.

It is my opinion Dawn Benson should withdraw her application. There are better qualified people out there that can manage and execute this position.

The potential salary salary is what a master degree can and should earn.
Dawn has a bachelor's degree?

Bachelors degree today is like having a high school diploma, almost everybody has one!!! If this job pays that well along with full benefits let's set our goals a little higher on getting somebody to fill that position. Still watching for that "behind the curtains" magic trick!!

Dawn Benson should withdraw her application. This is an incredible lack of judgment on her part to even contemplate such a move in her position as a Board Member. I am not sure what her responsibilities would be in the new position but if they require any judgment on her part I would not count on it being very good.

So the dust has settled on this one. Map's paranoia did not pan out. Benson did not get the job and she did not get back onto the board.

No paranoia here, been on this planet a long time and have seen a lot of slippery characters fall into positions they have no business being in, that includes local, state and federal. People with enough money and "friends" can pretty much buy any position they want.
