Acting DA requests two personnel moves; committee approves creation and refill requests
Summary
Acting District Attorney Peter Degnan asked the committee to create a temporary Office Aide and to fill a full‑time Assistant District Attorney position; both requests are funded by the county and were approved and referred to the appropriate committees.
Acting District Attorney Peter Degnan requested permission to create and fill a full‑time temporary Office Aide (salary estimated $29,232–$32,886) and to fill a full‑time Assistant District Attorney position (estimated salary $72,700–$100,750). Both positions are funded 100% by County funds and the committee approved the requests and referred them to Personnel and Ways and Means as appropriate.
Legislator Dwight "Mike" Healy asked whether the intern would receive college credit for the Office Aide role; Degnan said he did not believe so and noted she is considering law school. Legislator Janice Burdick raised a budget question about the ADA line item; County Administrator Carissa Knapp said available funds should exist due to vacancies and she will follow up to confirm the specific line item.
Next steps: creation referred to Personnel and filling of the ADA position referred to Ways and Means for confirmation of budget line details and formal approval.
