MARBLEHEAD —
MARBLEHEAD — The School Committee has hired Brian Salzer for two years as business manager at a salary of $111,000 for the first year, compensation for the second to be negotiated, according to Superintendent Paul Dulac.
Salzer originally signed a contract with Dulac for $125,000, a $1,000 increase over what he’d earned this year as Swampscott High School principal. That arrangement seemed to fall apart when board members pointed out that Dulac had usurped their legal authority to approve such hirings.
In addition they complained that the salary was roughly $20,000 more than had been budgeted for the position.
Negotiations with Salzer followed and seemed stymied when the board announced it was undergoing a new search for a business manager. Meanwhile, Swampscott Superintendent Lynne Celli, noting Salzer’s eagerness to move into a top administrative position, declined to take him back as Swampscott principal.
The Marblehead board met at one point to discuss the situation, declining to respond when asked if Salzer had raised the possibility of legal action.
A terse press release on Wednesday afternoon simply announced the hiring. “Mr. Salzer will begin immediately,” wrote Dulac.

Debate: Should mayor speak?
It is the debate that will not die.
Does the mayor have a right to speak at City Council meetings?
It first flared more than a year ago when former Salem City Councilor Steve Pinto invoked a rule that allows a single councilor to block a member of the audience from speaking. In this case, he prevented Mayor Kim Driscoll from making her case for a new lease agreement for a City Hall annex. -
Bottle bill proposal has Keenan in the hot seat
It seems like a simple question: Should water and other noncarbonated drinks be subject to the state's bottle redemption laws?
It's an issue, however, that has been debated in the state Legislature for 14 years, with no resolution. Now it's coming up again, and Salem state Rep. John Keenan is right in the middle of it. -
Middleton woman could qualify for state Democratic primary
MIDDLETON — Her U.S. Senate campaign has little cash and no paid staff, and she is virtually unknown to most would-be Massachusetts voters.
Yet Democrat Marisa DeFranco, an immigration attorney from Middleton, is on the verge of qualifying for the September primary ballot, denying the party's prohibitive favorite, Harvard Law School professor Elizabeth Warren, the ability to focus exclusively on Republican incumbent Scott Brown. -
