La Paz County board adopts revised hardship policy after minor revisions; vote 2–1
Summary
The board approved a revised hardship policy intended to formalize exemptions and include a grandfather provision for current out‑of‑state employees. The motion passed 2–1 after legal revisions and staff review.
The La Paz County Board of Supervisors voted 2–1 on Feb. 2 to adopt a revised hardship policy that county staff and the County Attorney's Office had updated.
Cheryl, a county staff member, told the board the policy had been revised by the County Attorney's Office and now includes a provision "to grandfather in our out of state employees that we currently have." She said the revisions bring the policy into alignment with legal counsel and internal expectations.
The board discussed the changes briefly, then moved and seconded approval. The motion carried 2–1; the transcript records the outcome as "Motion carries 2 to 1." The meeting record did not identify which members voted yes or no in the public record excerpt.
The policy, as described at the meeting, formalizes procedures the county previously followed and clarifies eligibility and grandfathering for existing staff.
