Hancock County supervisors approve full-time Veterans Affairs director position
Summary
The Hancock County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved changing the Veterans Affairs Administrator/Director position from part-time to full-time (35 hours/week), effective July 1, 2024, and reviewed fiscal 2024-25 budget submissions. The board approved Feb. 5 minutes and adjourned at 11:42 a.m.
The Hancock County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Feb. 12 to change the Veterans Affairs Administrator/Director position from part-time to full-time at 35 hours per week, effective July 1, 2024. Supervisor Florence “Sis” Greiman moved the measure, and Supervisor Jerry J. Tlach seconded; all supervisors present voted “Aye.”
The staffing change was approved as part of routine business after the board read and approved the minutes from its Feb. 5, 2024 meeting. The move to a 35-hour workweek for the Veterans Affairs position signals the county’s intent to increase staffing capacity in veteran services beginning with the next fiscal year.
Board records show the remainder of the session was used to review budget submissions for fiscal year 2024-2025; no formal budget allocations or votes on those submissions are recorded in the minutes. The meeting was adjourned at 11:42 a.m. on a motion by Supervisor Greiman; Auditor Michelle K. Eisenman attested to the minutes. The board is scheduled to meet again on Feb. 20, 2024.
The action affects county-level administration of veterans services; the minutes do not specify changes to funding levels, salary, or the position’s job description beyond the hours and effective date.
