Section 5-E of Jeremy Allen's employment contract dated May 9, 2019 calls for performance reviews
as follows:
In all subsequent years of this Employment Agreement, including any years added as a result of a
mutually agreed extension as provided in Section 3.A., Allen shall receive an annual performance
review from the Village Council. All performance reviews shall be held at regular Village Council
Meetings. Criteria are attached to this Employment Agreement as Exhibit A; said criteria are subject
to revision by the Village Council from time to time. Any revision must be relevant to the duties and
responsibilities expected of Allen in his service as Village Manager.
Beginning October 1, 2019, and for each fiscal year thereafter, if non -union Village employees
receive an across the board pay increase, then Allen also shall receive a pay increase in the same
amount and at the same time as given to other non -union Village employees.
The Village Council may, in its sole discretion, increase Allen's base salary and/or benefits in such
amounts and to such extent as it may determine to be desirable to do. Salary and benefit changes
shall be fixed by resolution of the Village Council, and shall be made by written amendment to this
Employment Agreement in accordance with Section 15 below.
In conjunction with its annual performance review, the Village Council may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, award the Village Manager additional compensation based on performance over the
previous year. Any such compensation shall be based on performance review criteria and shall be
limited to an amount not to exceed .001(1/ IOth of 1 %) of the Village's general operating budget. In
the event that the Village Council grants Allen additional compensation pursuant to this section, such
compensation shall be determined before tax. Taxes and other payroll deductions shall be deducted
from said amount, as with normal staff compensation, before payment to Allen.
