On the financial items, commissioners approved payroll and school payroll warrants and expense disbursements recorded on the meeting docket. The board approved a school payroll warrant for $384,979.07, a Zurich expense warrant for $2,414.42 and a school suspense warrant for $155,529.07. The commissioners also accepted the county trial balance for February 2025, which staff reported as $30,996,004.97.

County Director (unnamed) briefed the commission on the FY26 budget schedule and several operational projects. \"Just a reminder, this afternoon at 05:00, the Norfolk County Advisory Board and Finance Committee will begin their work, to consider and vote on the FY 26 budget,\" the director told the commissioners. He said the finance committee would follow at 6 p.m., and the advisory board meeting would be held at the Agricultural High School.

The director also reported that the Dedham District Court Building Management System project, funded through ARPA, is moving toward completion. He described it as an \"$800,000-ish\" project to install a building-management diagnostic system to monitor HVAC systems; IT staff and electricians were finishing work, and a final assessment of valves (including a review for potential asbestos) remained under evaluation. The director said the county expects to transfer and operationalize a disaster-recovery room in Dedham within about two to four weeks, with new shelving arriving in mid to late June.

Finally, the director said the FY24 audit is nearing completion, and auditors were conducting site visits to certain county units, including the recreation facility and the registry of deeds, to review cash handling and operations. He said he expected audit work to be finished before the end of the fiscal year.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Norfolk County Commissioners Meeting 5-14-2025","oneSentenceSummary","Norfolk County commissioners accepted the February 2025 trial balance and approved payroll and expense warrants at their May 14 meeting while hearing an operations update from the county director.","taxTitle","Norfolk County, Massachusetts","taxId",3603,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6239457,"Norfolk County approves seasonal hires and authorizes vacation carryover for maintenance employees",535,319000,854000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3337688-9ad3d7079d21b19a249c3bfa174a23fe&start=319&end=854","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3337688-9ad3d7079d21b19a249c3bfa174a23fe/thumbnail_319000.jpg","/articles/6239457/Norfolk-County/Massachusetts/Norfolk-County-approves-seasonal-hires-and-authorizes-vacation-carryover-for-maintenance-employees","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6239457-23d5ec15ed8858ddaf28971f42b20a2f/orig.mp4?Expires=1771182442&Signature=YiRTC7wjfv9I0kMtcfscLYvXBAwTTBlGjzH8xHhQRi3optHDfQUDAg8z2n9Apygg8xV3L13h3iiQjT6qFP9BhFCzC2gaCCLtnhCzNvlTQgJhU3Uvu7vKTfjxz2N9EkbgmhYtJj3c7ulfBqRNsIAx2YrY06eM7M7Ts2QriUN7EjQdUSX4NbtQE9BVxSt5-UkkLM7aBJofoEp1nKN7gNC0GxkcAXgHPZhfN3UJAW1U-d4oPyr3Z~yVp6Rli3GhKw7U~WnBqLMi7GwVIXxI1z53S71u4fhCkGb4F02W6PcpyPixe5NYfqMrofqBBadFy2IQRNQGHA1sNZtPO-IroEUwoQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Norfolk County commissioners approved contingent seasonal hires and a vacation carryover for maintenance union employees at their May 14 meeting.

The commission also introduced John Davis, a new maintenance employee at the facility noted in the meeting; Davis provided a brief summary of his prior work in commercial cleaning and building maintenance. The commissioners welcomed him to the county staff.

Commissioner Collins moved to approve vacation carryover requests submitted by maintenance union employees; the board voted to approve the requests as presented. The clerk and staff stated the county had received nine requests; commissioners approved a single inclusive motion to grant the carryovers pursuant to the current collective-bargaining contract.

The moves were made by Commissioner Collins and taken by roll call. Commissioner Stade, Commissioner Collins and Commissioner Shea each voted yes, and the commission left the public meeting for private sessions under state law.

The commissioners said the first executive session was to discuss a personnel matter described under Massachusetts law as matters concerning reputation, character or discipline of an individual. The second was described as strategy for collective bargaining with AFSCME Council 93, local 2417, covering maintenance, engineering and registry units. The third was described as litigation strategy that the board said could be harmed by public discussion.

Commission staff noted that the county’s general counsel and labor consultants would participate in the executive sessions. No substantive details from the closed sessions were released on the public record when the board returned to open session.

The commission returned to open session later the same meeting and resumed the published agenda.","On May 14, 2025, Norfolk County commissioners voted unanimously to enter three executive sessions to discuss a personnel matter under Mass. Gen. Laws., a collective bargaining strategy with AFSCME Council 93 local 2417, and litigation strategy.","actionData","errors"]
