Trustees set director-evaluation timeline and keep assistant-director position on budget as a placeholder
Summary
The board set a deadline to complete the director evaluation before June 15 and directed HR documentation by June 12; Director Dissmeyer recommended keeping an assistant director position on next year’s budget as a placeholder.
At its April 28 meeting, the Great Falls Public Library Board of Trustees set a schedule for the director’s annual evaluation and discussed initial budget guidance for the coming fiscal year.
Chair Anne Bulger said the director’s evaluation must be completed before June 15. Director Amy Dissmeyer told the board that human resources requires documentation of goals and a prorated compensation amount by June 12 to process any pay adjustments. Trustees agreed to place motions on the May agenda — one addressing the director’s performance and one addressing prorated compensation — and Jessica Crist offered to draft the motions.
On preliminary budget discussion, Dissmeyer asked trustees for input and specifically recommended leaving an assistant director position on the budget as a placeholder while she settles into the director role. No budget allocations or hiring decisions were made at the meeting.
The board scheduled strategic-planning sessions for May 4 and May 21, 2026; follow-up items including the director evaluation and budget motions will appear on future agendas.
