Madison County supervisors approved administrative and personnel measures intended to improve operations and protect courthouse security during the June meeting. The board authorized a $4,000 contract with Solutions for targeted software training for the auditor’s office after auditor staff said training will reduce error and time spent consulting manuals.

The board also approved an updated policy governing disclosure of security‑related information (camera locations and blind spots) to preserve courthouse safety and clarified which officials will retain video access. Steve (county staff) described a modest estimated cost to relocate a server and the need for an uninterruptible power supply for camera systems; supervisors approved the policy after brief discussion.

On personnel matters the board approved hiring M. Joyce as a second deputy in the auditor’s office at $7.25 per hour effective June 11, 2025, granted VPN access as requested (with a supervisor expressing concern about immediate access prior to a probationary period), and approved several wage adjustments and promotions listed on the agenda. One set of wage discrepancies in the secondary roads department was tabled for further analysis.
