Its great to be a Forks Township Supervisor!

As if life wasn't good enough for Forks Township Board of Supervisor Donald ("Don") Miller, it just got better!

Imagine, in addition to your board position, your fellow board members gave you a cushy full-time position overseeing the community center. Good pay, great benefits for you and your family, and hours that won't kill you. Life couldn't be better..or could it?

Turns out, YES IT CAN! Come on down Don Miller, you just won a whopping 60% annual salary increase! That's right, we're giving you an extra $17,000 a year!

Technically the township's internal auditors gave good 'ole Donny the hefty raise, but who appointed the internal auditors who meet once a year? If you guessed the Board of Supervisors, you get extra dessert tonight!

Hey, anybody else remember when Supervisor Bonnie Nicholas warned us last February that his salary would be doubled and no one seemed to care, much less disagreed with her?

One wonders if this huge pay increase will help Supervisor Miller actually turn a profit on the community center like other township run community centers throughout the Lehigh Valley.

So were you like most American workers who typically received a 1-3% annual pay raise, or did you get the 60% variety?

You just can't make this stuff up ladies and gentlemen!
