At the March 13, 2013 Cottrellville Township Board Meeting, Trustee Michael Zoran was the one and only Cottrellville Township Board member to vote "No" to what ultimately resulted in a $1,500 pay raise for Cottrellville Township Board members.
Clerk Lori Russelburg and Treasurer Sandra Keais will receive a pay raise of $1,000 starting in April of 2013. This large 4.2% pay raise will increase by an additional $500 automatically in April of 2014. The overall net result is a whopping 6.25% pay raise!
Supervisor Kelly Fiscelli-Lisco, Trustee Ken Chartier, Clerk Lori Russelburg, and Treasurer Sandy Keais voted "Yes" to this large pay raise. The one and only Cottrellville Township Board member to vote "No" to this large pay raise was Trustee Michael Zoran.
Michael Zoran did not support the pay raises for several primary reasons:
First, the Cottrellville Township Annual Budget still isn't finished, which means it has not even been officially documented that these raises can be paid for.
Second, we are living in a difficult economic time period where other workers are going through cuts in pay and cuts in insurance. Simply remaining at the same level of pay would have been good enough for Cottellville Township employees. Allowing Cottrellville Township employees to receive such an incredibly large raise was unfair to all the hard-working residents of Cottrellville Township who are forced to cut back on spending money because of the tough economic time period we are currently going through.
Third, the population of Cottrellville Township has decreased, which means the annual revenue has decreased. We should not be spending more money on the wages of board members when we have less money to spend during a tough economic time period. The tax money Cottrellville Township receives from all the nice people I visited when I went door-to-door campaigning to over 550 homes means a lot to me, and I want to spend it wisely, not selfishly.
Fourth, the property values in Cottrellville Township have decreased because of all the blight ordinance violations the previous board and current board allows to exist. This drop in property value causes the annual revenue to decrease. Kelly Fiscelli has decided not to fulfill campaign promises of entering into a contract with an attorney specializing in Municipal Law. Kelly Lisco has also decided not to fulfill the campaign promise of sending out an RFP for a Building Inspector and sending out an RFP for Ordinance Enforcement Officer when those contracts currently signed with Bill Klaassen expire later this year.
Finally, elected officials are 100% aware of the rate of pay when they apply for the job. If the rate of pay isn't good enough for an elected official, then I -- Michael Zoran -- believe the elected official should not apply for the job.

Times Herald has a great article about the pay raises today.
I'm proud of you, Michael, and the Times Herald did a great job of explaining you were the only Cottrellville board member to fight against that big pay raise.
I'd vote for you again Mr. Zoran, but I wouldn't vote for those other board members.

Mike, you may have been outvoted 4-1 by those other greedy board members, but all the voters know you are the one who is correct.

I now know that Kelly is no longer endorsed by the Republican Party.
Kelly spit in the face of the Republican Party when she appointed the Democrat who ran against her as her Deputy Supervisor.
It doesn't make any sense to appoint a 100% inexperienced Deputy Supervisor to assist a 100% inexperienced Supervisor!

Kelly Lisco reminds me of Tom Raymond. Kelly has appointed two of the five former Cottrellville board members as part of her staff.
And at the last meeting in March we learned that Kelly Lisco is not going to keep the promise to replace lazy Attorney John McNamee that she made to fundraiser sponsors. ... At least we now know Kelly won't be getting elected again.
We even received 100% confirmation that Kelly Lisco and Ken Chartier are liars (although we've known that about Good Ole' Boy Ken Chartier for decades).

Having his wages garnished is something Tom Raymond specialized in (and still does).
Everybody now says Kelly Fiscelli/Lisco is a female Tom Raymond.
Kelly's husband, Brent Lisco, is now having his wages garnished $15.

Kelly Fiscelli/Lisco has now been arraigned for three serious crimes!
Court Case ID#: 13M01047OT
Three Crimes:
1. FAILURE TO STOP AT SCENE OF PROPERTY DAMAGE ACCIDENT(ATTENDED
2. FAILURE TO REPORT ACCIDENT
3. OPERATORS LICENSE IMPROPER CHANGE OF ADDRESS (MISD)
Obviously the only reason you would run away from the scene of an accident like this is because you are drunk...Something Kelly Fiscelli/Lisco and her husband Brent Lisco are known for being all the time.
Fingerprints were taken on April 18, 2013, and Kelly Fiscelli/Lisco has a trial with a jury coming up.
Rumors are circulating that Kelly is so guilty and unwilling to participate without being drunk that the lawyer she hired is considering dumping Kelly as a client.
Kelly Fiscelli/Lisco isn't just a female Tom Raymond. She is a female Tom Raymond with drunkness thrown in!

Kelly doesn't even tell people she is a grandmother!
That's right, Kelly's son, Ken Collier is the daddy of a daughter who is 6 years old!
Kelly puts his picture in literature in a military outfit to make it seem like he is a good kid. In reality Kenny doesn't even pay his child support.
Posted by: Teresa | 04/26/2013 at 05:12 PM
LOL!
You people elected Kelly and you did a poor job of judging her. You should have recognized she is a liar. I laugh SO HARD the way Kelly tries to tell people she is just like a kid. The people are usually dumb enough to believe her. Now I know Kelly is a grandmother. That's probably why she's always trying to hit on Ken Chartier.
Some people said Kelly thinks Chartier has a lot of money. But Ken Chartier just lost a building on Marine City Hwy and Starville Road to the bank that foreclosed on him. So Ken Chartier ain't got any money.
