Commissioners approve Veterans Affairs director as full‑time for benefits at 30 hours per week
Summary
Fulton County approved Veterans Affairs Director Richard Newman to be classified as full‑time (30 hours/week) for benefits due to added state duties related to the Disabled Veterans Real Estate Tax Exemption.
The Fulton County Board of Commissioners approved on Nov. 25 a change to the work‑hours classification for Veterans Affairs Director Richard Newman, designating him as full‑time for benefits by setting his equivalent hours at 30 per week. Commissioner Hervey P. Hann moved to authorize the change, citing additional duties assigned by the state related to the Disabled Veterans Real Estate Tax Exemption; the motion carried unanimously.
The board recorded the personnel classification change in open session. The transcript documents the motion and approval but does not list specific changes to the benefits package or effective date beyond the motion recorded on Nov. 25.
The action means the director will qualify for full‑time employee benefits under county policy at the 30‑hour threshold unless and until further changes are approved by the board.
