Goffstown salaries fair
Every so often, it pays to take a look at the salaries being paid to town and school workers. After all, that’s where a good chunk of your tax money ends up. In our comparison this week of Goffstown salaries versus Bedford’s, Goffstown comes out looking pretty fair. Talking about how much money one makes is a taboo subject. Those named are generally never happy about having that information published, and we understand that. But for those of us making perhaps a quarter of those large salaries (and probably feeling none too good about that), it is helpful to know that in a competitive market, Goffstown is doing pretty well at maintaining qualified staff at reasonable cost. After all, we need to have well-run schools for our children, safe neighborhoods, paved roads, and all the other functions provided by our local government. - Editorials published by Neighborhood News Inc. are written by an editorial board.
