School buses were idled by the coronavirus shutdown after March 13.<\/p>\n<p>Weydig then took a higher-paying job with the Uniondale, LI, Union Free School District.<\/p>\n<p>Records show Uniondale hired Weydig as a probationary \u201csupervisor of transportation\u201d to be paid $125,000 a year, prorated for six months starting April 27.<\/p>\n<p>Weydig later resigned from his DOE position effective June 7, with further payment limited to unused vacation time, officials said.<\/p>\n<p>The DOE said Weydig did not disclose an outside paycheck.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were not aware of any job offers extended to him. He did not inform the DOE or ask the DOE permission to work elsewhere,\u201c a spokeswoman said.<\/p>\n<p>The DOE reported Weydig to the Special Commissioner of Investigation for city schools, she added.<\/p>\n<p>Uniondale\u2019s acting schools superintendent Rhonda Taylor refused to answer questions on Weydig\u2019s hiring.<\/p>\n<p>Weydig is married to Lisa D\u2019Amato, the director of contracts and management for the DOE\u2019s Office of School Support Services. Her salary is $160,749.<\/p>\n<p>In September 2018, OPT investigator Eric Reynolds, a retired NYPD detective, accused Weydig and others of bypassing him to sign off on drivers without a criminal background check.<\/p>\n<p>The DOE gave no update last week on a probe of those allegations.<\/p>\n<p>Weydig, who lives in Port Washington, L.I. \u2014 24 miles from OPT\u2019s Long Island City office \u2014 took a city-issued Ford sedan home and back, although he did little or no field work on a daily basis, The Post reported.<\/p>\n<p>D\u2019Amato joined him in the commute.<\/p>\n<p>Weydig did not return calls for comment.\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/06\/20\/school-bus-exec-allegedly-on-nyc-and-long-island-payrolls-at-same-time\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/general\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>if you want to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">watch Movies<\/a> or Tv Shows go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/dizi.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dizi.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a> <\/span> for forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#School bus exec allegedly on NYC and Long Island payrolls at same time&#8221; June 20, 2020 | 6:59pm Enlarge Image Paul Weydig, safety director in the DOE&#8217;s Office of Pupil Transportation and his wife Lisa D&#8217;Amato, the director of contracts and management for the DOE&#8217;s Office of School Support Services.
