The details of BART General Manager Dorothy Dugger's early exit are still being worked out, but one thing is clear - it's not going to be cheap.
"If it's not seven figures, it could be doggone close," said Lynette Sweet, one of nine BART directors who will have to vote on the package.
BART and Dugger have both armed up with outside attorneys to do the final negotiations.
Dugger, who has an open-ended contract that pays her $354,000 a year, was basically fired by a 5-4 vote of BART directors last month. Sweet was among those voting to keep her.
The vote, which was taken in closed session and without proper notice, was quickly voided - but the die was cast.
At this point, the only question appears to be a politically sticky one: Should the payments be spread out over time, or does Dugger walk with all the money at once - showing the public just how much their elected directors are costing them?
One solution being kicked around would be for to Dugger to leave, but stay on the books.
That would mean she would still be paid as an employee for the 15 months of severance she would be owed under her contract - plus unused vacation, comp time and sick leave.

They all need to go. They are loafers. They need the bumb’s rush. Every last one of them.
Perhaps there will be an opening when the high speed rail is built (in keeping with the Peter Principle)
I will add..this isn’t major league baseball, this isn’t private industry where initiative and productivity are rewarded over time. These people are pure loafers, public employees eating at the trough, producing nothing and destroying our society. They are political appointees and therefore the lowest of the low.
Buggered by Dugger.
That along with the idea that they are a privileged class who should be treated better then anyone else,because their political buddies rewarded them,makes them increasingly problematic.
The less of them,the better we all are.
No ...wait?..Nevermind.
