Douglas County appoints Phillip R. McAfee as county building official
Summary
The Douglas County Board of Commissioners on Jan. 28, 2026, approved an order appointing Phillip R. McAfee as the county building official, effective Feb. 1, 2026; compensation will be set by the Liaison Commissioner with Human Resources.
Phillip R. McAfee was appointed Douglas County Building Official by Board order effective Feb. 1, 2026, the board packet shows.
Human Resources Director Michael Kurtz recommended McAfee for the department director position. The order says the building official will serve as an at-will department head under the county personnel rules and that compensation will be determined by the Building Department liaison commissioner in consultation with the Human Resources director.
The order included standard approvals and signature blocks for the Board of County Commissioners. The packet does not record a roll-call vote or tally for the appointment; the document is presented as a board order taking effect Feb. 1, 2026.
Next steps: personnel paperwork and compensation discussions between the liaison commissioner and Human Resources will precede McAfee assuming the duties of the office.
