Summary

The board appointed two members to the Elected Officials Compensation Committee, approved a series of personnel step increases and hires, and delayed filling the Public Works Fleet Program Supervisor position.

Human Resources Director Michelle Shaw presented committee appointments and a set of personnel requisitions and actions.

Shaw explained that the Elected Officials Compensation Committee reviews comparable counties’ pay scales and makes budget-cycle recommendations; the board appointed Jodi Robertson and Maegon Brazille to that committee by a 3-0 vote. Shaw also summarized several personnel actions across departments (assessor refill, community corrections step increase, public health step increases and hires, sheriff certification increase, airports hire). The board approved the listed requisitions and personnel actions without objection, but elected to hold off on filling the Public Works Fleet Program Supervisor position pending further discussion.

Shaw also explained county policy for interim department heads’ compensation, which the board applied for the Interim Emergency Management Director (see separate coverage of Sheriff/Emergency Management items). The transcript records the approvals but does not include detailed effective dates for each personnel action; HR should file the formal personnel paperwork.
