Madison board approves part‑time QuickBooks contractor at $65 an hour
Summary
The board approved hiring a part‑time QuickBooks contractor to work about four hours a week at $65 an hour with no benefits; commissioners asked staff to draft a formal engagement document before start.
The Madison Board of Commissioners voted to hire a part‑time contractor to handle QuickBooks and district financials.
The administrator announced that someone had accepted the part‑time position to work on QuickBooks and the district’s financial records. Commissioner Mark moved to approve paying the contractor $65 an hour for roughly four hours a week; the board recorded approval during the administrative report.
Members said they would prepare a formal written agreement spelling out duties and the absence of benefits. "There's no benefits, which is why we can balance this," a commissioner said during the discussion.
Commissioners also emphasized the need to tidy and document file systems before bringing the new person on board, so the contractor can be productive quickly. The board directed staff to draft the engagement paperwork and return with any clarifying details before the contractor begins work.
Outcome: motion approved (recorded vote reflected in the meeting as affirmative), and staff were asked to prepare written terms and confirm start timing.
