Summary

After tabling the item earlier, the board took the correction department general leave request from the table and approved continuation of county benefits for a specified leave period.

The Board of Commissioners took a personnel leave request off the table during open session and voted to approve continuation of county benefits for an employee in the Department of Corrections for a defined leave period.

The motion, as read into the record, authorized continuation of the county portion of benefits for the employee during a general leave period covering June–July dates discussed in the packet (the motion referenced a leave from June 6 to July 11 and staff corrected the record during discussion). The motion was seconded and approved by the commissioners present.

Earlier in the meeting commissioners had tabled the item to allow fuller discussion; after returning from a brief nonpublic session they moved the matter back to the floor and adopted the requested benefit continuation as recommended by human resources and the senior director.

The board’s vote extended benefit continuation pending the agreed dates; staff indicated any administrative corrections (for exact effective dates) would be handled by human resources.
