Personnel Committee extends HR Assistant position through Sept. 30, 2028

Human Resources Director Natasha Kugler briefed the Personnel Committee on Sept. 10 about the HR office’s work over the past year and requested an extension of the full‑time Human Resources Assistant position to allow completion of key projects, including workers’ compensation improvements, development of HR training, and preparation for the 2028 benefits plan. "The HR Office has handled numerous employee relations matters, investigations, and potential liability issues while working to mitigate the County’s risk," Kugler said, noting the office continued work despite medical leaves by staff.
