OR: City staff’s private info sent out with water bills

Posted on January 19, 2010 by Dissent

Elissa Harrington and KVAL.com staff report:

A list of the names and Social Security numbers of employees of the City of Oakridge was sent out with monthly water bills in this town of about 1,400 households.

Don Hadley is one of the residents who got a little more than he bargained for with his most recent water bill. In the same envelope was the City’s newsletter that Hadley says contained too much information.

Printed on one side of the publication is a news article and a January 2010 calendar. On the other side, the City of Oakridge Payment Calculation Report.

This includes private information about city employeees like their names, wage information, vacation days, sick time, and social security numbers.
