Summary
The board approved a one‑step pay increase (about 2.5%) for HR analyst and senior HR analyst positions effective April 1; step progression dates remain unchanged.
Cowlitz County commissioners approved a personnel pay adjustment for Human Resources. Jessica Warren, human resources, requested a one additional step for HR analyst and senior HR analyst classifications — roughly a 2.5 percent increase — effective April 1.
Warren told the board the step increases would be permanent and that the positions would continue to receive the normal step progressions on their existing schedules (October 1 for HR analyst; February 1, 2026 for senior HR analyst). A commissioner said he saw no opposition; the board approved the request during the meeting.
No further details on fiscal impact were provided in the meeting transcript; staff said they will process the adjustment and implement it in payroll.
