Humboldt County board approves moving forward with new payroll software; implementation to start after vendor setup
Summary
Supervisors voted to move forward with an RTD payroll software agreement intended to improve oversight and reduce payroll errors, with staff (Shauna) to confirm a 6–8 week implementation window and a target go-live of July 1.
Humboldt County supervisors authorized county staff to sign an agreement for a new payroll software system intended to strengthen oversight and payroll accountability.
County staff presented the RTD payroll software as a change to current processes that would force departmental compliance with time entry and approvals. Shauna (county staff) said the vendor estimated six to eight weeks to begin implementation after contract signing, and supervisors discussed aiming for a July 1 switch to align pay-period changes.
Speaker 3 moved to forward the agreement and sign, with the condition that Shauna confirm the vendor's start date and timeline; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote. Board members emphasized the need for staff-to-department compliance and suggested creating clear guidelines to ensure required paperwork and approvals are submitted on time.
Supervisors asked staff to follow up with the vendor and report back at the next meeting with an updated timeline and any implementation constraints.
