City Councilor Quits Day Job

West End City Councilor David Marshall has been forced to give up his 20-hour a week job at Portland West because of scheduling conflicts with his new position as a Portland City Councilor. Marshall was elected to the Council in November, 2006.

Marshall’s hours at Portland West were between two and six PM, and many of his City-related meetings are at 5PM and later. The City Council post pays $5500 a year. Marshall will be doing property management and maintenance work in addition to continuing paint pictures which he sells at his Pine Street studio.
