Item No. 3 —Review of Executive Director's 2025/2026 Annual Report and goals
CCUA's Executive Director provided an Annual Report in which he was evaluated in the following ten areas:
Customer Engagement, Risk Management, Safety, Administration (strategic planning), Human Resources,
Regulatory Compliance, Financial Performance, Organizational Operation, Public Stakeholder and Government
Affairs Engagement, and Intangibles.
The Board is responsible for conducting the Executive Director's annual evaluation ensuring a contribution to
the overall achievement of CCUA's mission, vision, and goals. The purpose of this evaluation is to provide
timely, clear, and focused input regarding how well the Executive Director is performing in the key
performance areas identified as most critical in achieving CCUA's strategic objectives. The evaluation used
criteria established by the Personnel Committee aligning with established core competencies, rating criteria, and
salary adjustment schedules as determined and approved by the Board. The Executive Director's annual merit
increase is based on the scoring of the objectives established in the prior fiscal year using a Board approved
numerical grading criteria which would equate to an available merit increase percentage using the final
composite score. The completed evaluations are due to be mailed or emailed to Mr. Williams by September 4,
2026; to permit time for them to be complied so they can be presented at the September 15, 2026, Board
