Good Job if you can get it

Recently, the office of the State Controller posted information regarding compensation of all special district employees in the State of California. These districts run the gamut from water districts to special districts focused on a very specific public service. These districts are for the most part autonomous, operating with a board of directors that supposedly scrutinize the employees and the public funds that come from district taxes on property owners that are located within the boundaries of the entity.
Tahoma is included within the boundaries of the Meeks Bay Fire District. The district is adjacent to the North Tahoe District and has a mutual response agreement in effect for assistance when needed across the boundary line. Meeks Bay Fire is one of the many small, rural districts that provide a very limited amount of service to a very small population of residents that live here year round. The district has 5 directors, elected by the voters to fixed terms after which they can run for re-election. The majority of district director positions are uncompensated. A small percentage offer a small stipend for the monthly meeting requirement, usually about 1-1 1/2 hours each month at the district headquarters/central station. At Meeks Bay, this station is located adjacent to Meeks Bay resort, on the south side of Meeks Creek, next to the camp ground which runs a few hundred feet to the lake shore. The U.S. Forest Service fire house in front of the resort is a seasonally staffed site that houses federal firefighters during the summer season when the area population swells considerably.
Of the 5 directors at MBF, one does not accept any compensation; 2 accept several hundreds of dollars; but the big winners are 2 directors who compensation runs to------$10,000/year!!!!!!!
Repeat for emphasis----$10,000/year for 1 hour a month effort, which involves listening to various proposals by the"Chief" to spend the remaining tax dollars received from El Dorado county general fund and district tax revenue.

WHAT A JOB! What a snow job! Who are these people??????
More to follow. Stay tuned, stay warm, drive safely.
