Sherman weighs salary cut after city vote on service director
Logan Nov 8 The vote sustaining the city council to replace the service director with a city engineer raises uncertainty for Edward Sherman. He has not decided whether to accept the new 1500 dollar salary, about half his current pay, while Mayor Rochester says Sherman may stay on for now if he accepts the ordinance terms. The move is seen by many as Citizens approving council authority to reshuffle the office, though Sherman cites his supervision of a new storm sewer project in the west central city as a reason to remain briefly.
