Our newspaper group published a 2009 public employee salary roundup today. Once again Washington Hospital CEO Nancy Farber topped the list. She made more than $800,000 again last year.
Regarding last week’s discussion about whether Fremont should contract out its fire services to the Alameda County Fire Department, the story notes that county fire department employees (both sworn and non-sworn) had the highest salaries in the survey.
The Alameda County Fire Department, which is a special district governed by the board of supervisors that maintains its own payroll system, had the highest average salary of the 109 entities: Its 311 full-time employees averaged $144,345.23 in 2009.

This topic circulated back in August 2009 -
http://www.ibabuzz.com/tricitybeat/2009/08/30/washington-hospital-ceo-made-nearly-double-next-highest-paid-bay-area-public-employee/#comments
A whole truckload of creative ideas came out of that thread – - but, the forget all that stuff about local papers running an article on Hospital CEO pay “comps” – - that’s too difficult.
Post #14 in the aforementioned dialogue included another rather simple suggestion – I (and at least one other “regular” to this list) felt it had merit at that time, and I think it still does. . . . Anyone with half-a-dose of scripting skills could hack this out in 10 minutes – - –
(Repeated from the August 30th post – )
Matt Artz -
A suggestion that I think would benefit the BLOG would be to expand on the number of allowed “RECENT COMMENTS” – which is (randomly) set at 4 right now.
The impact of this is that comments on any one topic can readilly get buried by just a few responses to another related topic . . . . There’s plenty of room on the page in that left hand column – I’d suggest to your sysadmin or webmaster that you expand the number to maybe 10 ( like the “RECENT POSTS” summary).
We’re still stuck at 4.

Dear Cathy:
I am resident of Fremont, I have an specific question for you: How many people are in City Council of Fremont?
Where can I find the listing?
Who approved to sell the parcel of land 6.6 acres for $1.00? Who votes for it and what company bought it?
I can not believe our representatives can take this kind of actions, there has to be some money under the table.
