Personnel Board defers vote on performance management program
Personnel Board · Meeting of March 19, 2026
DEERFIELD — Personnel Board tables performance management program vote. Holly Lankowski presented a performance management proposal for town employees, which the board deferred pending further work; the board aims to recommend final policy to the Selectboard by late May for fiscal year 2028 implementation. The program would establish employee evaluations with potential bonuses and step increases, though consensus emerged on establishing evaluation procedures first without immediate salary impacts.
Town Administrator Christopher Dunne reported on refinements to the Police Staff Assistant job description, removing restraint-related duties and clarifying travel requirements based on research from other communities; the board will consult Police Chief Paciorek on database maintenance and supervision expectations before finalizing the job description.
