Resident raises FMLA paperwork and termination concerns; board agrees to procedural changes
Summary
A resident, Janice Harrop, told the board she spoke for her sister, Angel Prelle, alleging the county failed to file paperwork timely, that FMLA leave was exhausted May 7 and employment ended May 8; the board said changes need to be made but no formal action was recorded.
Janice Harrop appeared at the May 12 Custer County Board of Supervisors meeting to raise procedural concerns on behalf of her sister, Angel Prelle, about how the county handled FMLA and termination paperwork.
Harrop said the family was informed by Jordan Arndt with Zelle that Prelle’s FMLA leave had been exhausted on May 7 and that employment was terminated on May 8. Harrop told the board she believes county paperwork was not filed in a timely manner. The minutes record that the board agreed changes need to be made; no vote or formal disciplinary or corrective action is recorded in the minutes.
The public comment was recorded during the general business portion of the meeting; the minutes show the board accepted the comment and agreed to review procedures but do not specify what procedural changes will be made or any follow-up timeline. The minutes also show the county had earlier approved a Sick Leave Bank application and several benefit- and budget-related items at the same meeting.
