Anniston School Board wants to renegotiate supt. contract


Darren Douthitt

 The Anniston Board of Education postponed voting Thursday on a contract for its recently hired superintendent, Darren Douthitt. Two board members had concerns about the cost of some of the contract benefits and wanted to renegotiate them with Douthitt before voting.  The board plans to reconvene today to vote on the contract.  The proposed contract, negotiated earlier this week with Douthitt, offers a base annual salary of $132,600. The board first offered a base annual salary of $120,000 when it hired him last week. After benefits, including travel and retirement, Douthitt's annual salary in the proposed contract jumps to more than $186,000.
