Madison County board votes to terminate county engineer, authorizes interim consultant
Summary
A board member moved to terminate the county engineer effective immediately; the board also authorized one member to contract with a consultant already under hourly agreement to provide interim engineering services while the position is vacant.
A board member moved "to terminate the employment of the Madison County engineer effective immediately," citing a possible different direction for the county's engineering work. The motion was seconded and carried by voice vote, with no recorded opposition.
Following the termination vote the board approved a separate motion authorizing one board member to engage a consultant already under hourly agreement to provide interim county engineering services. The chair said the county is already under contract with consultants and that the board needs the ability to reach out to cover the vacancy; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.
The meeting record does not identify the county engineer by name, nor were any personnel or severance details discussed on the record. The board did not record a roll-call vote; actions were taken by unanimous voice vote as the motions were presented.
