Marquette County health department adds REHA manager, schedules inspector hire
Loading...
Summary
Health Officer Jayme Sopha reported the REHA program transitioned three positions from Waushara County to Marquette County; a staff member, Jessica, began June 2 and another inspector will start June 30, with further hiring dependent on program revenue sources.
Marquette County Health Officer Jayme Sopha told the Board of Health on June 3 that the REHA (rental/homeowner) program has been transferred in part from Waushara County to Marquette County and staffing is in process.
Sopha said Jessica’s first official day in the REHA program was June 2, renewals related to the program have been mailed, and the department encountered some issues with the state database but otherwise the transition has proceeded smoothly. The county accepted an offer from a qualified inspector with a start date set for June 30. Sopha said a third position will be onboarded once she can fully assess the program’s revenue streams.
Separately, Sopha provided the board with inspection activity for May: five Marquette County inspections and four pre-inspections, three Waushara County inspections and no Green Lake County inspections; the department attended one event.
Board members did not take formal votes on staffing beyond recognizing hires in process; Sopha said she will return with a plan for further onboarding after revenue clarification.
