Port Chester Village Manager Christopher Russo fired Daniel DeLisa, a cleaning and maintenance employee, after learning that he had been collecting a check and having someone else do the work.
Mr. DeLisa said he was authorized to "outsource" the job 10 years ago by a supervisor in the Building Department, Leonard "Let's Make A Deal" Cusumano, who is now dead.
Port Chester Village Manager Christopher Russo is handling the situation, because Port Chester is a village manager form of government and the manager is responsible for monitoring, directing, managing and firing village employees.
It is reported that Mr. DeLisa was hired in 2000 to clean what was then a village office on Willett Avenue and outsourced his job in 2001,
Mr. DeLisa was paid $5,400 a year for the three day per week cleaning of the Department of Works office.
That worked out to $34.81 per visit, before insurance and tax deductions.
It's not clear what amount of money the woman was receiving, but it was common knowledge in the Department of Public Works that she was working for Mr. DeLisa.
There was some speculation that she got about half of the $34.81 for each cleaning visit.
The arrangement came to light when a public works foreman reported that the woman hadn't been paid.
Port Chester Village Manager Christopher Russo said he will do the right thing and to report the situation to law enforcement.
