Commissioners hear request to reclassify payroll clerk Kayla Momen; no vote recorded

At its Jan. 22 meeting, the Buchanan Board of Commissioners heard a staff request to reclassify county payroll clerk Kayla Momen from payroll clerk 1 to payroll clerk 2, effective Feb. 1.

The request came from Mr. Hawkins, a staff member, who told the board that Momen “has obviously met the standards that is necessary for this position and [is] doing a great job for us.” Mr. Hawkins said the county estimated a fiscal impact of approximately $32,100 for a 12-month period, including PERS contributions.

The transcript records the presentation of the reclassification request and the estimated fiscal impact but does not record a motion, seconder, or a formal vote on the item during the meeting. The agenda item was introduced during the board’s regular business; no additional conditions, amendments, or follow-up assignments for the request were recorded in the transcript.

The item was presented as part of routine personnel business; the board did not state a disposition on the record in the available transcript.
