Richland County commissioners impose two one-day suspensions after closed session
Summary
After an executive session on employee discipline, the Richland County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to impose two one-day suspensions: one for a third-tardy violation and one described as a Group 3, number 4 violation.
The Richland County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to impose two one-day suspensions on county employees after returning from an executive session to discuss discipline of a public employee.
The board returned from executive session at 10:55 a.m. and a motion was made to impose two one-day suspensions: the first cited as a third-tardy violation and the second described in the public record as a “Group 3, number 4” violation. Commissioners present voted yes on the motion.
The action followed an executive session earlier in the meeting that the board said was to discuss discipline of a public employee. The board did not identify the suspended employees in the public record, did not give employee names, and offered no additional personnel details at the time of the vote.
No further personnel action was announced publicly; the board adjourned later in the meeting. The disciplinary matter originated in the closed session and the vote in open session recorded the imposition of the two one-day suspensions.
