Summary

The Butler County Board approved Greg Brecka as Interim Highway Superintendent while Randy Isham is on leave and authorized a $30 monthly cell phone reimbursement during his interim service. The actions were unanimous among present supervisors; Bob Coufal was absent.

The Butler County Board of Supervisors voted July 20 to appoint Greg Brecka as Interim Highway Superintendent while Highway Superintendent Randy Isham is on leave. The board approved an offer letter for Brecka in a roll‑call vote that recorded Aye votes from Supervisors Jan Sypal, Brad Vandenberg, Tony Krafka, Scot Bauer, Scott Griess and Chairman Scott Steager; Supervisor Bob Coufal was absent.

The board also approved a $30 monthly cell phone reimbursement for Brecka for the duration of his interim service. The reimbursement motion passed by roll call (Aye: Krafka, Bauer, Griess, Sypal, Vandenberg, Steager). The actions ensure a designated supervisor is leading highway operations while Isham is on leave and addresses a small communication stipend tied to the interim assignment.

The appointment followed a recommendation by Supervisors Vandenberg, Bauer and Krafka. Interim Superintendent Brecka has been overseeing ongoing roadwork, including culvert installations and dirt road projects south of Rising City and southeast of Brainard. The board recorded no nays on either motion; Coufal was noted as absent.

The board did not set a timeline for a permanent hire at this meeting; personnel recruitment for other positions (including a public defender) continues separately.
