Increasingly light library board duty doubled pension of former senator

July 2, 2009 - 7:15am — Blake

John A. Brennan Jr. won plaudits when he resigned after 19 years of service as a member of the Malden Public Library Board of Trustees, a volunteer seat he held despite his busy career as one of Beacon Hill's most influential lobbyists.

But a closer look at the record shows that Brennan, a 63-year-old former state senator who departed the Legislature in 1990, barely attended monthly library board meetings during the last four years, missing 30 out of 36 meetings.

Thanks for the heads up, Blake

Blake,

Thanks for the heads up on this. I blogged about it and gave you credit here:
