“We enjoyed a small morale the past couple years,” Paulson said. “We don’t wish to identify that sort of thing happen again- When you are happy, a person does a better job. If you are not happy, it’s hard to be effective on the fullest of this potential.”

Paulson said his trust of FSBA to decide on the ideal administrator derives from his example of the non-profit.

The board as well as organization will see October 31 in the workshop to stipulate the details of their effort.
