Deerfield Personnel Board approves Principal Assessor position revision. The board voted unanimously to approve amendments to the Principal Assessor job description, which will replace an administrative assistant role and is expected to be full-time at a potentially higher grade level, with the goal of reducing reliance on contracted assessment services. The board also deferred discussions of the Police Department Assistant and DPW Building Maintenance Manager positions to future meetings.
Members began developing draft updates to Personnel Rules and Regulations focused on employee performance evaluations, including potential performance-based bonuses, though they raised concerns about consistency and legal implications and noted that Town Council review would be required before finalization.
