Summary

Supervisors approved step increases and personnel changes across several departments, accepted minutes from March 17, and met after the session with Imagine the Possibilities and disability advocates to discuss a property sale.

The Des Moines County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday approved personnel actions affecting the County Attorney’s office, the Sheriff’s Office, Treasurer’s office and Conservation Department, accepted the March 17 regular meeting minutes and adjourned the session.

Personnel actions included unpaid leave for an administrative assistant in the County Attorney’s office, step increases for a Records Legal Assistant, Sheriff deputies with stated annual salaries, a Clerk II step increase in the Treasurer’s motor vehicle department, and Conservation staff step increases. Vice Chair Tom Broeker and Member Jim Cary moved and seconded the approvals.

After adjourning at 9:44 a.m., the Board held a work session with Imagine the Possibilities and representatives including Tiffany Marlette (CEO), Wendy Malone (President), Jane Houseright (President of Persons with Disabilities), Dina Garrison, Mary and Francis McAllister, and Ruth Sckeenz to discuss the sale of properties and address questions from the group.

Why it matters: The personnel approvals effect county staffing and payroll; the post-meeting discussion signals ongoing negotiation or information exchange related to county property and community organizations.

Next steps: Personnel changes take effect on the dates noted in county personnel paperwork; staff will continue work on property sale follow-ups with Imagine the Possibilities.
