Riley County commissioners approve administrative measures, personnel posting and office‑hours change
Summary
At the Feb. 24 meeting the commission approved several routine but formal actions: tax roll corrections, meeting minutes, revised public‑works administrative hours and posting/refilling an appraisal supervisor position.
Riley County commissioners on Feb. 24 approved a series of administrative motions, including tax roll corrections, corrections to minutes, revised public‑works administrative office hours and the posting and refilling of a residential appraisal supervisor position.
The panel adopted each motion by voice vote during a meeting that combined routine business with longer policy discussions elsewhere on the agenda.
Votes at a glance
- Tax roll corrections: Motion to approve tax roll corrections as listed. Outcome: approved by voice vote. (Agenda provenance: item introduced at the meeting’s business segment; staff requested signatures.)
- Approval of minutes from the Feb. 20 meeting: Motion to approve minutes as presented. Outcome: approved by voice vote.
- Public Works administrative hours: Motion to change administrative office hours for Public Works (including weed and household hazardous waste functions) to 7:30 a.m.–5:00 p.m. Monday–Thursday and 7:30 a.m.–noon Friday; road and bridge crews remain on existing schedules. Outcome: approved by voice vote. Staff said the change primarily affects administrative staff and will be implemented after customer notice.
- Residential appraisal supervisor posting/refill (Appraiser’s Office): Motion to post and refill a redesigned residential appraisal supervisor position (reclassifying duties to create separate commercial and residential supervisory tracks). Outcome: approved by voice vote. Appraiser Anne Berson told commissioners the change involves no net increase in authorized headcount and is budgeted.
How motions were handled
All four items were presented as routine administrative business and had limited debate. Where commissioners asked questions — for example about the public‑works hours change — staff described operational details such as which crews would keep existing shifts and how customers who need in‑person services would be notified.
Documentation and next steps
Staff were directed to implement the approved administrative actions and to obtain required signatures where applicable. The appraisal office will post the vacancy immediately and proceed with recruitment under existing budgeted headcount.
