Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
January 25, 2022, Item 7(a), closed session, the Board of Supervisors appointed Darcie Antle Interim Chief Executive Officer starting March 20, 2022, for up to 12 months; July 12, 2022, the Board of Supervisors appointed Darcie Antle as Chief Executive Officer, BOS agreement No. 22-0939.
Summary of Request:
This item proposes and recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve the Employment Agreement between the County of Mendocino and Darcie Antle for the term of March 12, 2024, through July 11, 2026. This agreement replaces BOS agreement No. 22-0939.
Human Resources completed a market study which included base salary and benefits for a total compensation study for the County in July of 2023. At the conclusion of the study, it found the Chief Executive Officer position to be 25% out of market, using the comparator counties of Humboldt, Lake and Sonoma. This Board of Supervisors, in negotiations with counsel representing Ms. Antle, have come to an agreement to bring Chief Executive Officer’s salary to ½ of total compensation market study effective first full pay period following board approval. The remaining increase of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) will be based on performance. Chief Executive Officer Antle must complete the performance goals outlined in her 2024 performance evaluation (performance evaluation will be completed in July of 2024) and if any goals remain, must show work in progress, a plan and timeline for completion. If, in the sole and exclusive judgement of the Board, the performance requirement is met, an increase of Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars shall be effective the first full pay period after performance evaluation is delivered and finalized in June 2025.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not approve Employment Agreement and direct staff.
