The highest earner in 2020, the latest figures available, was Executive Director Steven Morrison, who was paid $155,168, according to records provided to the BND from the transit district through a Freedom of Information Act request.

Director of Engineering Mark Steyer was the second-highest earner, bringing in $143,227, the records show.

Director of Operations Anthony Lafata was third with a salary of $141,876.

The fourth highest-earner in 2020 was Director of Accounting Michelle Domer who was paid $132,042. The fifth-highest earner was Strategic Advisor Jerry Kane $123,885.

The BND’s Public Pay Database goes back to 2011 with information obtained through Freedom of Information Act requests. The salary information does not always include insurance or benefits. Some records include detailed information on overtime and other pay, while for some districts that information was not readily available.

The database includes worker compensation in most local governments, including cities, counties, townships, school districts and local colleges and universities. More pay records will be added as the BND receives salary data through open records requests.
