Summary
The board reviewed a resolution to appoint Jeremy Shifris to a part‑time community relations specialist role starting Jan. 1, 2026, at $34.32/hour for 16 hours/week, with reduced hours after April 30; the board discussed precise end dates and hour changes and agreed to finalize the dates in the resolution.
The Hurley Town Board reviewed a resolution appointing Jeremy Shifris to a part‑time community relations specialist position beginning Jan. 1, 2026.
A resolution read into the record named Jeremy Shifris for a competitive civil service position (code referenced in the packet) with an initial schedule of 16 hours per week at $34.32 per hour through April 30 and a reduction to 10–12 hours per week through June 26. Members and staff clarified exact end dates and asked for the resolution to reflect April 30 (not June 30) for the first phase; minutes and numerics were adjusted on the record.
One board member noted that newsletter production timing might require extending responsibility to early July; the board said that could be adjusted administratively if needed. The resolution language also removed an annual dollar figure and adjusted the end date for the first period to April 30 so the position’s initial hours would be clearly stated.
What happens next: staff will correct the dates and dollar amounts in the resolution so the appointment can be finalized and signed.
