Sanitary board creates three new positions after executive session on personnel
Summary
Following an executive session for personnel, the Clarksburg Sanitary Board approved three new positions — sanitary board director, lead foreman and foreman in training — and asked finance staff for a report.
After returning from an executive session held under the personnel exception to the Open Meetings Act, the Clarksburg Sanitary Board approved the creation of three new positions: sanitary board director, lead foreman, and foreman in training.
The executive session was convened under West Virginia Code chapter 6, article 9A, section 4 to discuss personnel matters; the motion listed the board chair, board members, the director of finance, public-works staff and legal counsel as attendees. After the closed session, a board member moved to create the three positions; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.
The board instructed Kim Karakos, director of finance, to provide the financial report following the vote. No salary figures or hiring timelines were disclosed in the open meeting; those details were not specified in the transcript.
Why it matters: Adding supervisory and managerial staff changes the sanitary board’s organizational structure and could affect service delivery and payroll commitments.
What’s next: The board tasked finance staff with reporting on fiscal impacts; the board did not announce posting or hire dates in the open session.
