BACKGROUND:

At the Board’s July 11, 2024 meeting, a new employment agreement was approved for the Chief Counsel. As such, she is eligible for her a merit bonus payment of up to ten percent (10%) of her base salary based upon performance, achievement of goals, and financial condition of SBCERA, at the Board’s discretion.

 

The confidential personnel components of the Chief Counsel’s annual review are set to be discussed by the Board in closed session on June 4, 2026.  During open session, the Board should determine whether to award a merit bonus payment to the Chief Counsel, and if so, in what amount.  The Board may also use partial percentage points. 

 

A companion closed session item to discuss the confidential personnel components of performance has been separately agendized.
