Summary
Members discussed hiring a replacement for Nancy, recommended outreach and interview steps, and proposed allocating 14 weekly hours to Board of Health duties and 5 hours to Building Department work for a joint position.
The Robertson Board of Health discussed plans to recruit a replacement for longtime staff member Nancy and recommended steps for advertising and interviewing for a joint Board of Health/Building position.
Members said Town staffer Nate would coordinate posting and that the vacancy would be advertised through town channels and social media, not only on the town website. The board recommended a hiring workflow where finalists would meet informally with staff who share office space (Nancy, Leanne and Mel) before formal interviews with Nate and a board representative.
In an email recommendation shared with town staff, members suggested allotting 19 weekly hours to the joint position, with 14 hours assigned to Board of Health duties and 5 hours to Building Department responsibilities, reflecting that much building work is now processed online. Members noted schedules may vary week-to-week depending on work demands. The board intends to follow up with Nate on candidate outreach and interviews; one candidate had already expressed interest.
