Board approves a series of personnel actions: temporary hires, program host site and workforce coordinator hire
Summary
The board approved multiple personnel items including advertising for an emergency management administrative assistant (effective Oct. 1), approvals for part-time probationary positions pending HR signatures, a senior community service program host site agreement and a motion to hire Lakisha Davis as workforce program coordinator under a community college partnership.
Board members approved a series of personnel and program staffing items, from advertising a new emergency management administrative assistant to creating a host site for a senior community service employment program and hiring a workforce coordinator.
Speaker 2 said the county will advertise for an emergency management administrative assistant with an October 1 effective date to allow time for candidate vetting. The board moved and approved the advertising and hiring timeline. Speaker 16 requested that the Adams County Board become a host site for the Collin Community College Senior Community Service Employment Program for fiscal year 2026–2027; staff said the college pays wages up to 38 hours every two weeks and a $12-per-hour rate and that the county's obligation is limited to hosting. The board approved hosting the program and identified two seniors who would start on the 3rd if approved.
The board also approved hiring Lakisha Davis to serve as a workforce program coordinator to run a building trades program under the community college partnership; staff said the county is contractually obligated to provide matches and that budget detail would be worked out through a pending budget audit and follow-up. Several hiring motions (including part-time juvenile correctional officers and a change of status for an employee from part time to full time with benefits effective July 21) were approved pending HR verification when appropriate.
Board members asked finance and HR staff to finalize contractual and budget details; where paperwork was missing or HR was absent, the board approved actions "pending HR signature" or as temporary measures until HR completes standard procedures.
