Board moves into non-public, discusses welfare administrator candidate and requests job descriptions and overtime policy review
Summary
The board voted to enter non-public session and to seal the minutes, discussed a candidate for welfare administrator offered the current contract figure ($5,000), and directed staff to provide job descriptions and add an overtime policy review to the next agenda.
The Lee Select Board voted to enter non-public session citing the statute referenced on the record and then voted to seal the non-public session minutes by roll call. The transcript records the board’s procedural votes to enter non-public and to seal the minutes; the sealed session content is not disclosed in the public record.
Before and after that motion the board discussed personnel matters in open session: the town administrator said she interviewed a candidate, Denise, for the welfare-administrator role and said Denise is qualified, is willing to accept the contract figure for the year and could start immediately. "She's willing to take the contract figure that we have for this year and start immediately," the administrator said, noting the position is a contracted role with compensation of $5,000 for the year.
The board also requested more detail from administration about personnel: members asked for job descriptions and payroll detail for administrative positions (not department heads) and directed that an overtime-policy review be added to the next meeting agenda so the town can consolidate three disparate policies into a single approach.
Because the board voted to seal the non-public minutes, public documentation of the non-public discussion is not part of the meeting record; the public record does show the hire offer for the welfare administrator, the personnel-information request and the overtime policy agenda direction.
