Johnson County board approves one-year extension and amendment to employee contract, adds health insurance
Summary
The Johnson County board voted to extend an employee’s contract for one year and approved a second amendment moving a budgeted amount into the contract and replacing a health insurance stipend with employer-provided health insurance; the amendment will be signed after the meeting.
Johnson County’s board voted to extend an employee’s contract for one year and approve a second amendment that moves a budgeted amount into the contract and removes a health insurance stipend in favor of adding health insurance.
The board’s presiding officer moved to extend “Ken’s” contract with the amendment; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The staff member who requested the amendment said the change simply ‘‘formalizes’’ the arrangement, and that the contract amendment will be signed after the meeting.
The amendment was described in the meeting as an administrative change to reflect budgeted funds and to alter how health benefits are provided. The staff member told the board they are the only employee governed by a contract and that the county’s attorney and the designated signer (Donnie) had reviewed the document.
No roll-call tally was recorded in the transcript; the decision was made by voice vote during the meeting.
The board did not provide further fiscal detail during the discussion about how the amendment affects the department budget or whether the change will affect future hiring. The staff member said the paperwork will be signed following the meeting.
The meeting adjourned after routine closing remarks.
