Yes, the delegation is accountable to the taxpayers. However, the delegation appoints the commissioners who in turn appoint the full time personnel. Maybe the issue is that with a delegation demanding accountability, the full time staff were worried that they would be unable to award themselves big fat bonuses with "management" breathing down their neck. I would further add that these bonuses were awarded to the top level management only. They weren't too concerned about individuals who do the day-to-day work that makes Gunstock great during the season. (I have a relative who has a very important job that is key to the success of Gunstock during the winter and he like his peers were snubbed.) The top management were concerned only about themselves.
