- Ms. Greene updated the Board on the progress of the classification and compensation study.

- The Board discussed the topic of timing for grade change effective dates.

She further noted that the TriTown positions recently regraded were not reviewed at a winter budget meeting but the Board of Selectmen have agreed to make any effective grade increases sooner rather than at the beginning of FY18.
- After discussion, a motion was made to recommend to the Board of Selectmen that an employee must not be required to wait more than six months for a grade increase after an employee’s position has been re-graded.
