Employees and board members are required to volunteer any conflicts of interest when they arise and this is easily enforced through the knowledge of each employee and board member and the knowledge of vendors the bureau does business with.”

“Salaries are set based on industry standards for that position both statewide and locally, years of experience and educational background. Additionally, the employee and his/her supervisor (the Executive Board of Directors is the executive directors supervisor) set goals at the beginning of the year and the employee is evaluated at year end based on how (s)he met those goals. If goals are met or exceeded, the employee is eligible for an incremental salary adjustment or performance based incentive as approved by the baord.”
