More on Dane Schuck...Dane is worried that paying Murrieta management from the city manager thru police and fire chief less that the 200K they earn now will hurt public safety. Well let's contrast what Murrieta currently pays to higher ranking positions in California. LET'S START WITH THE CITY MANAGER WITH A SALARY OF $210K or the $241K figure. The Governor of California makes $173,987, the head of the California Assembly makes $109,589, and the county supervisors make $160,366 per year.So we are being told by Dane Schuck that if we lower our management salaries to within the range of higher ranking state and county positions our city will suffer. What hogwash. We are paying too much and so are many other cities like San Marcos and Vernon. Does anyone really think the police on the street will work less hard because their boss makes less? Would you work less hard if your boss made less? The assertion that we will be less safe is a pure scare tactic. What Dane Schuck and his group of biased council attendies and the sitting council are doing is attempting to stop a movement that will take some of their goodies away from them and some high salaries away from those they employ. They are affected therefore they are biased. Their main tactic is to attack the messengers and try to scare Murrietans into believing that paying sane salaries will hurt the city. Do not be fooled by the propaganda. Use common sense and VOTE YES C D E.
