Executive Director Annual Evaluation - Mr. Gozza will submit a
written self evaluation along with a copy of his 1993-94 Goals
and Objectives to the CRA Board prior to the october 3, 1994 CRA
meeting. His previous contract should also be included in this
packet. At that meeting, his job performance will be formally
evaluated by the board. The compensation review will occur on
October 17, 1994. Trustees may, at their option, meet with Mr.
Gozza, individually prior to this meeting.. The annual report should
be completed by October 1, 1994.
Phil Henderson indicated that the DDB and Chamber of commerce will
informally review Mr. Gozza's performance as well.
outside consulting Employment - Mr. Gozza was asked by the board to
refrain from outside consulting for the first 6 months of
employment by the CRA. since almost one year has passed, Mr. Gozza
requested that he be permitted to resume outside consul ting .
Trustee Fitzgerald felt that the Executive Director position should
devote 100%, effort to the CRA business and also felt there could be
the risk of compromise due to the nature of the job and was
therefore opposed to permitting outside consulting. Trustee Thomas
was opposed because he, also, felt that the Exec Director position
'deserved 100% concentration and would prefer offering greater
compensation versus creating a freelance opportunity. Trustees
Berfield, Garvey and Chairperson Deegan had no opposition to this
issue, although Trustee Berfield requested an agreement be drawn up
that would protect the city of Clearwater. Alan zimmett, City
Attorney, suggested that this issue could be addressed in Mr.
Gozza's contract and will draft a paragraph addressing same. This
