“Compliance information is requested from each Board member on an annual basis and any necessary disclosures are transmitted to the appropriate authority.”

“Comparable information is gathered every two years by telephone and Internet survey. A salary range for each position is developed from this information. Supervisors are given the ranges and reviews are held with staff before approval of projected salaries are requested from the Executive Director. The Executive Director in turn reviews the supervisors and uses the same process to set their salaries. The Board of Directors sets the Executive Director's salary upon evaluations from each member of the Board and by recommendation of the Compensation Committee.”
