DeKalb County board hires consultant for county administrator search
Summary
The board approved a contract not to exceed $26,675 for an executive recruiting consultant to lead a full‑time county administrator search.
The DeKalb County Board on Sept. 17 authorized a management‑consulting contract, not to exceed $26,675, to conduct an executive search for a full‑time county administrator.
The resolution (R2025‑086) authorizes the county to execute an agreement for executive recruiting services and was adopted after a roll‑call vote. Board members noted the resolution text contained typographical errors on the agenda packet but voted to proceed with the procurement so the search can begin.
The contract funds are for recruitment services; board members did not change the dollar cap during the meeting. The county indicated the consultant will proceed with candidate outreach and screening consistent with county hiring policies and return to the board with finalists or recommendations as provided in the contract terms.
No amendment to the resolution text was recorded on the floor beyond correcting typographical mistakes; the motion carried and staff were directed to move forward with contracting and recruitment steps.
