An I-Team investigation found that taxpayers are on the hook for hundreds of millions of dollars to public employees in accrued sick and vacation leave.
SPECIAL REPORT: Taxpayers on hook for $444M in unused state worker leave
Greene County’s total liability for unused employee leave is more than $5 million. Most employees can rack up 600 hours of vacation, but only 120 days of sick leave, which is paid out at 50 percent after 30 years of service.
Capuano was also one of four of the county's top paid workers employed by the developmental disabilities board, according to the searchable I-Team Payroll Project database.
