Fiscal Court approves part-time hire for solid waste
Summary
The court approved hiring Clayton Fox as a part-time CDL driver for the solid waste department at $15 per hour, 24 hours a week beginning Sept. 15.
The Lee County Fiscal Court approved hiring Clayton Fox as a part-time commercial driver for the county solid waste department.
The court recorded that Fox will work 24 hours per week at $15 per hour and is expected to begin Sept. 15. The hire was presented as a short-term measure to fill shifts while other staff rotate duties on the trucks.
Why it matters: Solid waste operations are a recurring county service; this hire addresses an immediate staffing need for garbage collection and landfill operations.
During the item, the solid waste director said Fox had agreed to work part time to help fill in while another employee worked on a garbage truck assignment. The court moved and recorded the hiring action and approved it by voice vote.
The court did not discuss long-term staffing plans or whether the part-time position could convert to a full-time role; members said they may look to hire full-time staff later if needed.
