“The CAB Board conducts a wage and salary survey on a bi-annual basis. Using the Compensation and Benefit Survey published yearly by The Center for Nonprofit Management, a salary range is established for each CAB position. This was last conducted in 2012. All employees must earn a salary within the newly established range and may be granted an increase based on merit and where their salary level is within the new range. The Executive Director's review is on a bi-annual basis, and all other employees on an annual basis. The board annually establishes the range of the annual merit increase available. Based upon performance of the evaluation review, the level of merit increase is awarded effective on the employees' anniversary date. The CAB Personnel Committee conducts the evaluation for the Executive Director and reports to the full CAB Board. Other CAB employees are evaluated by their supervisor.”
