Commissioners authorize hiring to fill legal secretary vacancy in county attorney’s office
Summary
Board approved opening a legal secretary position after an employee notified the county she will move out of state; county staff said the hire fits the 2025 budget.
Raleigh County commissioners on June 30 approved opening a vacancy in the county attorney’s office for a legal secretary after staff reported an employee will relocate out of state in August.
Barrett (role not specified in the transcript) told commissioners the employee informed the county last week that she will move because her spouse is serving in the U.S. Army and the position will need to be filled. Barrett said the county expects to advertise when appropriate; the position is within the current 2025 budget and the office does not expect to have a replacement hired before the incumbent’s planned departure.
A commissioner moved and the board seconded a motion to open the position; the motion passed by voice vote and the board asked the personnel files to be completed. Commissioners recorded no roll-call vote on the record. Staff noted the pay range associated with the position and asked the position posting be prepared for recruitment when timing allows.
