Council funds county-manager position range up to $115,000 pending hire qualifications
Summary
Boone County approved funding for a county-manager position with a salary range up to $115,000; commissioners indicated the final offer would be adjusted based on experience and qualifications.
The council approved funding for a county-manager position with an advertised salary range up to $115,000, pending candidate qualifications.
Council members confirmed that the position had been discussed previously, that a job description was distributed in an earlier meeting, and that the salary range proposed would be used as a funding cap. One commissioner said the amount hired would depend on experience and qualifications, and council members moved and seconded a funding motion; the motion carried by voice vote.
Why it matters: funding the county-manager role within an approved range allows recruitment to proceed while reserving the council’s ability to adjust the final offer to reflect candidate experience.
