What does a guy who\u00a0manages a business that’s lost money every year get when he goes into salary negotiations? How about a $51,000 raise and a $51,000 bonus?!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Unbelievable. This guy now makes more than 40%\u00a0 more than the city manager does. The Greensboro Coliseum loses money by itself every year and breaks even once the secondary economic impacts are worked in.<\/p>\n
To make it even worse, the Greensboro City Council has no say-so in the pay raise because the Coliseum manager reports directly to the city manager. Greensboro. Greensboro’s city management and council has been dysfunctional for a long time and a story like this doesn’t help that reputation at all. Add that to the fact that this contract was signed back in July and it’s just coming to light now? Wow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
