IISS General Manager Subcommittee Minutes } ~ L MA ~ Date: March 28, 2007 2008 MA 21 P 3: S t4 Time: 6:30 p.m. Place: Cafeteria Attendees: RMLD Board: Messrs. Soli and Hahn Staff: Mr. Cameron The General Manager Subcommittee met to review and complete the General Manager's performance relative to his performance plan for calendar year 2006 to 2007, which ended February 6, 2007. A performance plan for the General Manager for the 2007 to 2008 year has been created with a set of goals and weighted scoring system that has been done in the past. The performance plan that was established for the year just reviewed had a couple of significant items. The most important item was the Calpine issue. The approach to the evaluation is to rate performance on each of twenty-five or thirty items. Based on the consensus of the Subcommittee the General Manager achieved 88% of the maximum points. The compensation formula is tied to the cost of living as measured by the CPI which is a common indicator used, the 88% put the General Manager in a .9% above the CPI. There were a few items that were not completed; the most significant was the Cost of Service Study. The current year's performance plan included a few items that were added to last year's performance plan such as monitoring the success in implementing the power supply procurement program which has been approved by the Board. The current year's plan also includes key industry-recognized reliability measures as specific goals and making the GIS system useful in managing the distribution system as well as assisting through distribution planning. Mr. Soli added that two new goals added for the General Manager in the current year's plan are to manage the Fuel Charge and the Deferred Fuel Charge to achieve the RMLB set objectives. Mr. Hahn said that the current year's plan also included a year-end report on capital projects that span more than one year. Mr. Hahn mentioned that items the Department is working on such as the circuit breaker replacement project at Gaw and 4KV upgrade work are examples of items they would like reporting on. Mr. Soli said that the same basic formula for a pay raise is in the new General Manager performance plan, but the maximum pay raise be limited to 4%. Mr. Hahn stated that in 2006 to 2007 the General Manager did a very good job on behalf of the customers. Mr. Hahn made a motion seconded by Mr. Soli based on the result of the 2006 to 2007 performance, the Subcommittee voted to recommend to the Board that the General Manager's compensation for the current year from the period February 7, 2007 to February 6, 2008 be increased by 4%.
