Summary
The Personnel Committee approved a fund transfer to allow the district attorney's office to hire a temporary front‑office worker while a staff member is on extended medical leave; staff said the funding is expected to cover roughly three months.
The Putnam County Legislature's Personnel Committee approved a fund transfer to the district attorney's office to finance a temporary front-office position while a staff member remains on extended leave.
Committee members were told the office has been operating with a vacancy and requested funding for a temporary or part-time position to assist the front desk. Staff said they typically budget such coverage for about three months and hoped to know within roughly 30 days whether the absent employee would return.
Members asked how long the transfer would cover and whether the amount included medical insurance and related costs; staff said the request was intended to fund the position for approximately three months. The motion to approve passed by voice vote; the public transcript does not include a roll-call tally.
