The Phoebe Needles Board of Directors, in conjunction with St. Peter’s,
Callaway Vestry, look into the possibility of having the salary of the
Phoebe Needles Director be supported in full. This would be reported to
the Executive Board. In addition, considering the hardship of eliminating
the support of the position completely in 2007 that if it is determined
that a reduction is in order that an incremental decrease be put into
place over 4 years of $10,000.00.
