On Sept. 8 the Iron County Commission approved a slate of personnel selections submitted by department directors. Human resources presented competitive selection results for multiple vacancies across county departments.
Confirmed appointees and effective dates announced at the meeting included:
- Children's Justice Center: Nick Hewlett, CJC Director, appointed (career service exempt), effective Sept. 15, 2025. - Assessor/DMV (Cedar City): Sydney Harrison, DMV Technician (full time), effective Sept. 20, 2025. - County Attorney's Office: Hannah Dockery, part‑time legal assistant, effective Sept. 2, 2025. - Landfill: Riley Bess, Jeff Rex Road, and Jason Ward, landfill technician positions (effective Sept. 15–29, 2025 depending on hire). - Roads: Kobe Bronson, Maintenance Technician 1, effective Sept. 15, 2025. - Fleet: Jose Jimenez, Automotive Technician 1, effective Sept. 15, 2025. - Council on Aging: William Duncan, part‑time Meals on Wheels driver (Perrowin office), effective Sept. 3, 2025. - Parks and Recreation: Brooke Zemp, part‑time seasonal Recreation Technician, effective Aug. 25, 2025.
Human Resources said hires were selected from competitive recruiting and interview processes and that the county has used temporary employment services to address short‑term staffing needs in some departments. Commissioners discussed the option of using a temporary staffing provider for positions with hard‑to‑fill skill sets such as commercial drivers and equipment operators.
The motion to approve the personnel items was moved and seconded and passed.
