Dickinson Township sets four‑day, 10‑hour workweek for office and public‑works staff
Summary
The board approved a modified work schedule of 6 a.m.–4 p.m., Monday–Thursday, for township office staff and public works crews for an approximate April–October timeframe; the manager will set the exact dates.
The Dickinson Township Board of Supervisors on April 17 set township office and public-works staff hours at 6 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Thursday — four 10‑hour days — for a period to be determined by Township Manager Larry Barrick, approximately April through October.
Manager Barrick raised the schedule in his report and the board agreed to the change after discussion. The minutes say the exact time frame will be determined by the manager, indicating this is an administrative scheduling decision rather than a permanent policy change.
Why it matters: the adjusted schedule is intended to align staff hours with seasonal public‑works needs and may affect service hours for residents seeking in-person assistance at the township office. No formal public comment or objections were recorded in the minutes.
The board did not record further procedural steps beyond instructing the manager to implement the hours for the stated approximate period.
