County accepts retirements of two long-serving employees; recruitment approved
Summary
The board accepted resignations from Pamela Sprague (public health accounting specialist) and Mary Spear (social worker) and authorized recruitment to fill both positions.
Koochiching County commissioners accepted resignations June 24 from two long-serving county employees and authorized recruitment to fill the vacancies.
Staff announced Pamela Sprague, a full-time public health accounting specialist, is retiring this fall and will be on leave soon; staff said public-health grant dollars are available to cover hiring costs and the department plans to recruit immediately. The board approved filling the vacancy by voice vote.
The board also accepted the resignation of Mary Spear (spelled in the packet as "Mary Spear"), a full-time social worker in Social Services with about 30 years of county service who intends to retire Aug. 30 (the transcript varied on the exact date phrasing). Commissioners thanked both employees for their service and approved recruitment to fill the roles.
Both recruitments were approved by motion, second and voice vote; staff said recruitment will begin and positions will be backfilled according to budget and grant rules.
