Greene County commissioners approve hires, reappointments and EMS training agreement
Greene County commissioners approved a series of personnel hires, board reappointments and an agreement allowing IU Health Bloomington EMT students to do clinical rides with Greene County EMS during their meeting on Jan. 6.

The commission moved unanimously on routine business: approving the minutes of the previous regular meeting and a Dec. 17 executive session, adopting the claims docket and payroll, and signing final pay vouchers for the Linton EMS headquarters project. The presiding official asked for motions; each was seconded and approved with commissioners responding 'all in favor' (no roll-call tally was recorded in the transcript).

Commissioners approved appointments and offers of employment across county departments. They voted to appoint Ron Layman to the Economic Development Commission and reappointed Alan Toon, Michael Turner and Scott Olyphant to the regional sewer district. Reappointments also included Brent McKinney to the alcohol control board; Dr. Royer as county veterinarian; Sharon Sparks to the cemetery commission; and Mike Hassler to the community corrections board. The commission voted to offer the Extension Office manager position to Samantha Rose of Jasonville and to offer the EMA administrative assistant position to Ashley Huff.

On training and interagency cooperation, the commission approved an agreement to allow IU Health Bloomington EMT students to ride with Greene County EMS for clinical experience. County Attorney Marvin recommended approval and asked that David be authorized to sign the agreement on behalf of the county; the motion to approve and to authorize signature was made, seconded and approved.

The meeting closed with scheduling: the next regular meeting will be Jan. 20 at 9:30 a.m., and the commission adjourned after a motion and second.
