Summary

The governing board voted to hire Luke Valentine as a municipal equipment operator/lineman at step 6 pay; motion carried unanimously during the meeting.

The governing board voted Wednesday to hire Luke Valentine as a municipal equipment operator (lineman), approving a starting pay at step 6, $24.66 per hour, with a start date in August (exact day not specified).

The vote followed a staff presentation that described Valentine as a lineman-school graduate currently working as a lineman and living on Berry Road north of Route 20. A board member moved to hire Valentine and a second was recorded; the motion carried on a voice vote.

The board did not provide further details in the public record about benefits, probationary period or the exact August start date. The hiring was presented as a candidate recommendation from staff, and the board’s approval authorized the clerk to complete hiring paperwork.
