Council approves numerous court-administration reclassifications, appoints Cindy Kershiel
At the Nov. 20 meeting the Northampton County Council approved a package of personnel resolutions affecting court administration, including reclassification and salary adjustments for conference officers, juvenile probation officers, adult probation officers, pretrial officers, supervisory positions, and related court-administration roles. The reclassifications list pay grades and effective dates (generally 11/21/2025) and included specific salary figures per position as read into the record.

Council considered and voted on multiple grouped personnel items. Several items were adopted by recorded votes that the transcript identifies as 8–0 or 7–1 (for example, one personnel block was "Adopted by a vote of 8 to 0" and another "Adopted by a vote of 7 to 1").

Separately, the council considered an executive appointment to the Drug and Alcohol Advisory Board (Cindy Kershiel of Walnutport) and confirmed the appointment by a recorded vote of 8 to 0.

The personnel resolutions included many line-item salary and pay-grade specifications read into the record; the measures were presented by council and staff during the personnel committee report and were adopted as shown in the minutes.
