Board approves 1Digital HR retainer, with legal review
Summary
The Nottoway County Board approved a retainer and HR assessment from 1Digital, described in the meeting as a $22.50-per-month retainer for ongoing HR support; the vote included direction for legal review and chairman signature authority.
The Nottoway County Board of Supervisors voted to accept a contract with 1Digital for an HR assessment and retainer described during the work session as $22.50 per month and to include legal review before final signature. The motion was moved and seconded and passed by voice vote.
Board members said the assessment will help identify gaps in job descriptions, policies and overtime classification and noted 1Digital also provides benefits-broker services the county already uses. During questions, members sought clarity about the retainer's mechanics, including whether the retainer covers up to 12 hours of advisory support, whether unused hours carry forward, and how departments that also use 1Digital would be billed.
The motion approved at the work session directed the county attorney to review the contract language and affirmed the chairman's authority to sign the final agreement. Participants in the discussion emphasized a desire to avoid hiring a full-time HR director immediately and to use the retainer to close policy gaps at lower cost.
The county will present the finalized contract, with any legal changes, at the board meeting for formal execution and any required appropriation. The board did not provide a definitive annual cost figure on the record; discussion referenced both $22.50 per month and a $27,000 annual figure in the room, and staff said the attorney would review contract terms and budget implications before final approval.
