>Gov. likens Parsippany school board to ‘a scofflaw’
The Parsippany School Board has called a meeting for next week to consider the latest threat by state officials over Superintendent Lee Seitz’s salary while a spokesman for Gov. Chris Christie compared its actions over the past few months to those of “a scofflaw.”
The board will meet Thursday to discuss the state’s demand that it cut Seitz’s pay by $43,000 to comply with a salary cap or face the prospect of losing as much as $3.6 million of state aid.
“We’ll discuss the issue and if the board wishes to take action, we’ll do it right then and there,” Parsippany School Board President Frank Calabria said Thursday. “My hope is that we can solve the problem and all of us can get on with other things.” (Koloff, Gannett)
