There’s an interesting discussion going on in Spring Valley, following a Sunday article about municipal salaries. As it turns out, 48 of the 50 highest-paid village employees are police officers. Topping the list is Police Chief Paul J. Modica, at $191,617. Mayor George Darden, the highest-paid mayor in Rockland, brought up the rear in the top-50 list. He took in $102,391. Here’s a link to the article by Suzan Clarke and Cathey O’Donnell.
