Haley presented a draft employee service award and recognition program that incorporated survey feedback. The proposal included personalized letters (for example from the clerk), handwritten notes, peer recognition, a six-month check-in email, a one-year acknowledgement and a challenge-coin program. Haley said roles and responsibilities were outlined in the packet and asked commissioners to review the material and provide feedback before implementation.

Commissioners responded positively to several ideas, particularly the six-month check-in and peer-recognition suggestions. No formal action or budget allocation for the program was taken at the meeting.

Staff will return with a refined recommendation if the board directs implementation.
