READ IT FIRST HERE: Top Earners in Our Greenwich’s Government

Jan. 22, 2010, 3:11 p.m. — Well, its time for the annual voyeur’s game of seeing how much the top-paid public servants made.  The full list of the top 120 earners is below.   They earned just over $17million combined.

It should be noted that in 2009 the calendar was such that our Greenwich issued 27 bi-weekly paychecks instead of the typical 26 — so the base salaries seem higher.  The figures reflect overtime pay too.

Of the $17,038,141,21 total over half of the money (51%) was for salaries paid to Board of Education personnel.  Just over $3.5 million of the $17 million (21%) was paid to 26 Greenwich Police officers, including the top two earners: Lt. Mark Kordick, top earner, who worked nearly around the clock on the new police headquarters completion due to the court-ordered absence of police command staff; and number two, Capt. Michael Pacewicz who retired in 2009 and whose figure includes a contractually-authorized one-time payout for accrued sick leave.
