Commissioners approve one new full-time maintenance worker for county facilities
Summary
The commission approved hiring one additional full-time maintenance employee to staff a new courthouse building; pay will follow CBIS range and be offset in part by eliminated part-time hours.
St. Francois County commissioners approved adding one full-time maintenance employee to support county facilities, including a new courthouse building.
A county official said the county originally asked for two maintenance hires tied to the new building but reduced the request to one for now. The position will be paid within the CBIS pay range cited in the meeting (a range discussed as roughly $16.06 to $18.47 per hour), and the county expects some offset from eliminating part-time maintenance hours.
A motion to authorize hiring one full-time maintenance worker was made and seconded; commissioners carried the motion by voice vote. Questions from commissioners focused on how the hire would affect the current fiscal-year budget and whether part-time reductions would cover the added full-time cost. County staff said the eliminated part-time positions would offset some of the new costs, though precise savings figures were not presented in the meeting.
The county indicated hiring could start as soon as a candidate is found. The commission asked staff to finalize budget figures and bring any needed adjustments to future meetings.
