Summary

The auditor’s draft budget includes a proposed county civil engineer position with a $105,000 salary line; commissioners discussed whether to approve the position or reassign funds to other priorities.

The FY2025 draft budget includes funding for a new civil engineer position with a listed salary of $105,000 and associated equipment and computer costs. The auditor noted the line appears on the project estimates and said the commission has not yet made a motion to hire; commissioners debated whether to retain the position or reallocate the funds.

One commissioner noted that if the court decided not to hire the engineer, roughly $105,000 (plus equipment/benefits) could be used elsewhere in the budget. No motion was made and the proposal remained on the revision sheet for later consideration.
