Fired Board Gave CEO Big Pay Raise and Severance Windfall Despite Internal Dissent
READ MOREYour help is urgently needed in order to stop the Colorado Springs City Council from making a terrible and costly mistake by handing the departing CEO of the city-owned hospital system, Dr. Larry McEvoy, a “golden parachute” severance package worth a whopping $1.15 million dollars -- which is 3 times larger than what his contract calls for. All without public input. All without City Council debating or voting. And all against the wishes and advice of Mayor Steve Bach.
Council isn’t actually handing McEvoy the check: that’s being done by Memorial Health System’s unelected board of trustees, which for 5 years has maintained a chummy-chummy relationship with McEvoy. Now they are making him a millionaire as he heads for the exits. But City Council has the authority to stop this outrageous misuse of public money if it chooses to. And councilors need to know that we'll hold them accountable if they let Memorial insiders get away with it.
