FLINT, MI – Flint’s outgoing emergency manager Michael Brown said raises and cuts to appointees were made because of changes he made to job responsibilities.

Those salary changes were included in this year’s budget that was already approved. But because the increases combined for more than $50,000 the Michigan Department of Treasury needed to approve them, Brown said.

Raises were between $2,580 and $13,000 a year. There also were pay cuts of from $5,000 to $12,501 a year.


The resolutions authorizing the changes were signed by Brown Sept. 27 and were made available to The Flint Journal on Tuesday, Oct. 8.

So far M-Live responses have been negative towards the raises. The reader wasit4sure was angry about pay raises during a financial emergency and wished the feds would do their job and deal with the corruption all the way to Lansing. Readers joilieder and fireatwill both expressed the belief this was corruption or dirty politics at its finest. The debt deepened under the EFM said fireatwill. Commenter ernestethel found it disgusting as the police took 30% cuts in compensation while Brown's "clowns get raises".

Most of these people who got raises also got jobs outside of their education and job experience.

Howard Croft was a GM electrician who allegedly has a successful solar company. How can he run a business and work for City hall. And why is it he doesn't keep up with his property taxes?

I am told the City spent around $50,000 for new carpet and furniture for Croft's offices in City hall and on 12th street. Part of the carpet expense may be legitimate as I hear the 12th street office carpet was moldy/

Tracy Atkinson has been associated with Brown since his days in Flit with United way and even worked with him in Lansing.. Supposedly Alex Harris filed freedom-of-information requests that caught her being paid for the same hours working for both Flint and University of Michigan. Isn't that what Dicks was indicted for?

David Solis is a capable guy, but not in the role Brown has hired him for. remember Brown also put him on the Flint Housing Board of Directors and then wanted to allocate funding to the organization.

Ambrose came from the City of Lansing and is being paid far more than Michael Townsend was. Don't forget Townsend got a $200,000 settlement for refusing to lie to the state about Flint finances.
