Linn County conservation staff seek upgraded accounting analyst position; to appear on consent agenda
Summary
Linn County Conservation staff asked the Board of Supervisors March 3 to reclassify a retiring senior accounting clerk to a full-time accounting analyst to manage growing fiscal responsibilities tied to software upgrades and federal grants.
Linn County Conservation staff asked the Board of Supervisors March 3 to approve a vacancy-form request to reclassify a retiring senior accounting clerk to a full-time accounting analyst.
Daniel, of Linn County Conservation, told the board the change responds to heightened fiscal complexity from new software such as GovSense, increased federal grant activity, auditing requirements and bond-dollar management. “Don Gingerich in particular suggested that we bump up the current position of senior accounting clerk … to this accounting analyst in order to handle the fiscal responsibilities that are growing for our department,” Daniel said. He also said Human Resources and finance staff support the reclassification and that the department will cover the small increase within its current operating budget.
A board member said they had received the information ahead of the meeting and had no additional questions. The board member Kirsten thanked conservation staff for their work at a county property (Penicun Ridge) during unrelated remarks.
Staff said the vacancy-form request will be placed on Wednesday’s consent agenda for final action; no formal vote was taken March 3.
No dollar figure for the salary difference was stated at the March 3 discussion; staff described the increase as "small" and said it would be funded from the department's existing budget.
