“The executive director compensation is reviewed by the board's executive committee annually. This committee is made up of the board's officers and the process begins with a self-evaluation by the executive director.

Uses a salary study from 2013 comparing the executive director's compensation with similar positions. The board will then increase the executive director's compensation accordingly, assuming favorable annual performance reviews.”
