'Pay raise' actually a cut for county manager Woodside, posted by Editor, The Almanac Online, on Dec 21, 2012 at 3:03 pm
A unanimous San Mateo County Board of Supervisors on Dec. 11 introduced a measure to raise the annual salary of the county manager to $300,000. If the board approves the measure in January, the $30,000, 11-percent raise would benefit John Maltbie, the county manager for 20 years prior to his retirement in 2008 and who the board has rehired after 13 months as interim manager.

I understand Silicon Valley is a unique expensive area. I will give you that. However, I do not understand in the worst economic times since the Great Depression, why are our local govts handing out $300,000 salaries? EVERYONE needs to do their share for society. Can't he be paid half that ($150,000) and still feel "well-paid" for this local area. I was told the "poverty level" in Silicon Valley is around $60,000/year. He still is well above that!!! Come on people. The local taxpayers are struggling.

"A unanimous San Mateo County Board of Supervisors on Dec. 23 " this meting took place on December 11, 20102 not Dec 23
I don't have a clue why or how $300,000 is less than $270,000 in anybody's book.
the 9 weeks of vacation with the CASH IN privilege only given to two of our over 5,000 employees should be addressed. Who were the Supervisors who approved this?
