Received
The Town of Wappinger Recreation would like to request approval to hire Thomas
McKinney in place of Theresa DeRosa as the Caretaker for Castle Point, Reese Park and
the Highway Dept. Theresa DeRosa was approved by the Town Board at the March 23rd
Town Board meeting on resolution # 2009-131, but has since declined the offer to work
in that position.
We request that we be allowed to replace her with Thomas McKinney. Five people
interviewed for this position, and we have found that he is far and away the most
experienced candidate. We request, with your approval, to bring him on board as soon as
possible. Mr. McKinney has a good deal of cleaning experience and we ask that he be
paid $8.00 hour out of payroll line A-7110.105.
Thank You.
Ralph J. Holt, Recreation
