Board approves hiring authorization for CDL position and reclassifies facilities manager job to C41
Summary
The board authorized an offer to a top candidate for a highway CDL position at step C ($26.05/hour) and approved a revised facilities manager job description and pay grade (C41); the county will advertise the facilities manager opening.
The county’s personnel agenda included two staffing actions the board approved by voice vote.
First, county personnel reported interviews for highway candidates with commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs). Staff asked authorization to offer the top candidate employment at step C ($26.05 per hour in the 2025 pay schedule); the board moved and seconded to approve sending the offer. Personnel emphasized the step-C start was for candidates with verifiable CDL and equipment experience.
Second, personnel presented an updated job description for the county’s facilities position after the incumbent Wayne submitted a retirement. Staff said the new description clarifies managerial responsibilities for building renovations and uses a revised format aligned with peer counties. A Gallagher compensation review recommended grade C41 for the revised facilities manager job; personnel said the previous classification had been B23. The board approved the job description, the C41 grade recommendation, and the request to advertise the vacancy.
Personnel committee members discussed the need for periodic job-description audits during wage studies to prevent ‘bracket creep’ and noted the county will seek applicants while Wayne has offered to help train his replacement. No changes to duties beyond one clarified sentence about project/product management were reported.
