Commission approves assessor departmental HR policies
Summary
Utah County commissioners approved departmental assessor policies that touch on employment after HR review; staff said the policies do not contradict current county policies and HR director Ralph Barnes approved them.
The Utah County Commission approved departmental policies submitted by the assessor’s office that touch on employment matters, after a review by the county human-resources director.
Katrina Cole said the assessor’s general policies touch on employment and therefore require commission approval. Ralph Barnes, the county HR director, reviewed the documents and indicated they were consistent with existing county policies. The assessor’s representative said employees had been informed and the office brought the policies to the commission to be safe.
Commissioner Gardner asked about HR’s review; after staff confirmed HR had reviewed and approved the policies the commissioner moved approval, the motion was seconded, and the commission voted unanimously to adopt the assessor’s departmental policies.
The policies will be implemented by the assessor’s office and incorporated into personnel procedures consistent with county regulations.
