TRIMET THROWS MONEY AWAY WITH IMPUNITY

Job posting for the Director of Safety position:
http://agency.governmentjobs.com/trimet/default.cfm?action=viewclassspec&classSpecID=765399&agency=1292&viewOnly=yes
Notice the salary range: $85,986.00 - $128,977.00 Annually

Now go back to Joe Rose's story about Saporta's hire, which is now updated with Mary Fetsch's quote on his salary:
"Saporta will be paid $155,00 annually. He begins work in late March."

So... that's an extra $26k/year they're paying this guy over what was listed as the top of the salary range.  What strings were pulled to make that deal happen?

    Including benefits, maybe?

    I don't think so Michael!

    I think what's absurd is the idea that an 18-year TriMet veteran will change the culture of TriMet.
