Board approves one-year HR services contract at $450/month
Summary
The board approved a one-year HR services agreement with Chelsea/INX for $450 per month (total $5,400) to provide ongoing HR advice and staff training beginning July 1; the vendor will send an updated contract for signatures.
Jefferson County supervisors voted to contract with an outside HR consultant, identified in the transcript as Chelsea (S4), for a fixed monthly fee of $450 billed quarterly, covering the contract period 07/01/2025–06/30/2026.
Chelsea explained the monthly fee is priced to cover about three hours of advisory work per month and that the consultant would advise and train county staff to take over HR functions over the year. Board members discussed the option of an hourly arrangement but settled on the fixed monthly fee because it offered cost savings compared with prior arrangements. The board approved the motion to enter the contract and S4 agreed to send an updated version for signatures.
S2 noted the county would likely need the consultant’s help during the coming year as the county updates its handbook and builds internal capacity; the board emphasized the arrangement was intended to be transitional and to include training. The contract total of $5,400 will be billed quarterly from the board’s budget and the county will revisit the arrangement at the end of the contract period.
