Summary

After a closed-door personnel discussion, trustees voted unanimously to raise the library director’s pay by 6.29% — a $10,000 increase — bringing the director’s salary to $169,000, the board announced June 24.

Trustees of the Franklin Township Public Library unanimously approved a 6.29% pay increase for Director January Adams after returning from an executive session on a personnel matter.

The motion, made by a trustee and seconded on the floor, proposed a combined adjustment of 6.29 percent — described in the motion as 3.32% for inflation/adjustment plus 3% for performance and growth — equal to a $10,000 increase. "The new salary would be 169,000," the chair stated when the amount was read aloud. The motion was seconded and then approved without recorded opposition.

Following the vote, several trustees offered brief congratulations. Trustee Kevin McNeil said the raise was "well deserved." Director Adams thanked the board and noted the work was not done alone.

Procedurally, the board first entered executive session at 6:13 p.m. for discussion of personnel and reconvened at 6:45 p.m., at which point the salary motion was brought and passed. The meeting adjourned at 6:48 p.m.

The motion passed unanimously; the transcript does not list an explicit roll-call tally of individual votes in the public record beyond the board’s announcement of unanimous approval.
