Board approves routine items: minutes, consent calendar, reappointment, labor letter, library agreement
The Kings County Board of Supervisors approved several routine but formal items at its Nov. 25 meeting, including minutes, the consent calendar, a reappointment, a human resources letter agreement, and a library agreement. All motions recorded in the meeting passed on roll calls with four supervisors voting yes and one absent.

Key actions recorded at the meeting:

- Approval of Nov. 18, 2025 minutes: Motion carried (4–0, 1 absent). The motion was made and seconded by board members (record shows a motion by Supervisor Rusty Robinson with a second noted on the record).

- Consent calendar: Board approved the consent calendar en bloc (4 in favor, 1 absent).

- Reappointment of Jimmy Hook: Staff recommended reappointing Jimmy Hook as Kings County Agricultural Commissioner and Sealer of Weights and Measures for a four‑year term effective Dec. 4, with compensation set at $14,778 per month (within a compensation band of $12,000–$17,000). The board voted to reappoint the incumbent (4–0, 1 absent).

- Human resources: The board authorized the director of human resources to sign a letter agreement with the Kings County Detentions Deputy Association (KC DDA) implementing an approximate one‑range (about 1%) salary increase effective Nov. 24, 2025. Staff estimated the cost to implement the increase at approximately $156,606 for the remainder of the fiscal year; the association ratified the letter.

- Library agreement: The board approved an agreement allowing King's Community Action Organization to use the Kettleman City branch library space monthly for family and children‑focused activities following KCAO’s departure from the local Family Resource Center (4–0, 1 absent).

Each action was recorded on the meeting minutes with roll calls showing four votes in favor and one member absent. No recorded motions failed or were tabled during the regular calendar items presented on Nov. 25.

What happens next: Routine implementation steps follow (appointment effective Dec. 4; HR director to sign the KC DDA letter; library agreement to be implemented under county administration).
