{news} Job posting: administrator for New Haven's public financing program

[Caleb Kleppner]

Folks --

I serve on the New Haven Democracy Fund board, which is implementing 
Connecticut's first local public financing ordinance.  We are seeking 
an administrator for the program.  This is an excellent opportunity 
for a Green to make some decent money helping to make a good but not 
perfect public financing program work.

Below you'll find link to the Craig's list post for the job as well 
as a quick job description.

I'd be grateful if you'd pass this along to any folks who might be interested.

Thanks,
Caleb Kleppner
New Haven Democracy Fund board

Interested in campaign financing reform?

The New Haven Democracy Fund board has begun to implement 
Connecticut's first public financing program for a mayoral election. 
The all-volunteer board is currently accepting applications for the 
Democracy Fund administrator who will:

* provide general administrator to the public matching funds system;
* verify candidate eligibility for grants and matching funds;
* monitor compliance with contribution and expenditure limits;
* audit candidate financial reports and statements;
* supervise the investigator selected by the board; and
* propose recommendations for the resolution of complaints brought to 
the board.

It is anticipated that this work will involve 10-15 hours per week

a contract position with hourly billing paid monthly. The budget for 
2007 is $25,000 for this position.
