A staff member asked the Hancock body for guidance on scheduling evaluations for two department heads, citing ongoing union negotiations and upcoming tax appeal hearings.
The staff member said they had been "working with" two department heads to complete evaluations but that the usual practice of holding executive-session evaluations toward the end of meetings conflicts with current union negotiations and a tax appeals docket set for next month. The staff member said their "sense is that we have both executive sessions where we have the employee evaluation then we went to negotiations," and added, "we shouldn't have the employee waiting all day for that."
A committee member asked whether the evaluations could be "squeezed in" before other sessions, seeking clarification on the preferred timing. No concrete scheduling decision was recorded in the transcript.
The Chair then asked for suggestions for future agenda items; none were offered. The Chair moved to adjourn, a member seconded, and the Chair called for a vote. The transcript ends without a recorded tally or a stated outcome of that vote.
Next steps were not specified in the record: the staff member sought direction on timing, but the meeting transcript does not record any formal instruction to staff or a follow-up schedule for the evaluations.
