MIDDLE TWP. TO COUGH UP $35K IN SETTLEMENT

Middle Township will be paying a former clerk from Galloway Township $35,000 to settle a discrimination lawsuit.  Lisa Tilton was going to sue the township because she was not selected for a clerk’s job; emails involving township officials allegedly raised questions about Tilton, who had sued Galloway Township for sexual harassment.  Galloway Township agreed to give her a quarter million dollars under terms of that settlement.
