Commissioners approve transfer of Juvenile Probation employees to Parmer County retirement, conditioned on grant funding
Summary
The Parmer County Court approved moving Juvenile Probation Office employees to the Parmer County Retirement System after the office requested the change and agreed the transition costs would be covered by its grant funds, according to the minutes.
County Judge Isabel "Izzy" Carrasco told the Court that Juvenile Probation Office employees requested transferring into the Parmer County Retirement System because, the minutes say, it offers more beneficial retirement coverage than their current Bailey County plan. Judge Carrasco said any additional cost would be paid from Juvenile Probation grant funds and would not impose extra expense on the county.
Judge Carrasco moved to approve the transfer on the condition that funding be provided from Juvenile Probation grants; Commissioner Kirk Frye seconded the motion and the Court approved it by majority vote. The minutes record the approval as conditional on grant funding; no dollar amounts or written agreement terms were transcribed.
The Court did not record further implementation steps in the minutes. Human Resources and the Juvenile Probation office are the likely implementing parties; the minutes note only that grant funds will be used to cover costs.
