Editor: Re: Tourism 91Ô´´ calls for vote on dissolution (the Times, Feb. 17)
Where did $6 million go? I totally agree with Coun. Quaale that the finances at Tourism 91Ô´´ are out of control.
However, Tourism 91Ô´´ is really not accountable to anyone.
Here is one example: In the past year, the executive director received over $131,000 plus other benefits. That, in itself, is an outrage — $41,000 over budget.
Really, it’s a job that is worth less than $20,000 at best.
Hopefully, the innkeepers in 91Ô´´ will push back and rid the community of this, and start giving lower prices to 91Ô´´ visitors.
