Goodman accused of personal attacks, gets asked to leave McKamey Animal Center board

McKamey Animal Center.

Carol Goodman, a McKamey Animal Center board member, was asked to resign Wednesday evening by fellow board members.

Goodman is a tenured board member who has donated $70,000 to the center over the last couple of years, she said Wednesday.

But according to board secretary Nancy Dunlap, several members of the board claim Goodman is unhappy, holds up meetings and personally attacks her peers.

Goodman said she is unhappy because the board is side-stepping by-laws and allowing Executive Director Karen Walsh to receive bonuses and pay raises without board approval. In four years, Goodman said Walsh has received $60,000 in bonuses.
