Legislature advances local law to split HR and civil service; confirms department appointments
Summary
The Labor and Civil Service Committee advanced a package of local laws to split the county’s HR and civil service functions into two departments, create/reclassify positions and confirm leadership appointments. Committee members were told the change will cost about $8,000 in 2025 and roughly $70,000 in 2026 to staff the new structure.
The Labor and Civil Service Committee on Nov. 5 advanced a package of actions to establish separate Human Resources and Civil Service departments, create and reclassify positions, and confirm department leadership.
County Manager Fluman described the local law package (LCS 19–22) as a charter‑level change to formally recognize separate HR and civil service departments. The manager said the move separates work that had been handled together and allows staff to specialize. The staffing changes were described as producing an $8,000 increase to the 2025 budget and about $70,000 to the 2026 budget to finance new deputy positions and other adjustments.
