Finance fills AP technician vacancy, seeks grade realignment and minor equipment in 2026 budget
Summary
Finance director Natalie reported the department had filled an accounts payable position and recommended changing the job grade to align with other accountant positions; the office also asked for two laptops and a replacement printer.
Natalie, representing the finance office, told commissioners the department filled a vacant accounts‑payable position and recommended regrading the job to align with other accounting positions.
She said all finance accountant positions require the same minimum qualifications and that one payroll/accounting position remained at grade 11 while peers were at grade 16. The new hire started at the grade‑16 minimum using current budgets, Natalie said, so the office does not require additional funds this year but requests a formal grade change to reflect duties and recruit comparably in the future.
The finance office also asked for two replacement laptops (one described as old and failing) and a couple of printers; the items were presented as modest, line‑item requests rather than a larger capital ask. There was no board action taken at the hearing; Natalie said the position had already been filled under current budgets.
