Commissioners approve course-credit communications internship with return to board if paid
Summary
The county approved a part-time communications internship to be run for course credit this summer and directed staff to return to the board if a paid (salaried) position is required; the internship may be paid at minimum wage only if necessary under federal law.
Administrator-in-training Christopher Heffernan briefed the board on a planned part-time Communications Internship for the summer, noting the position will be advertised and intended for course credit. Heffernan said that if a salary is required for the intern to participate, staff would return to the board with a proposal for reconsideration.
Commissioner Gregory M. Hanley moved to proceed with the application process for a course-credit-only internship with the stipulation that a salaried internship proposal return to the board if needed; Commissioner Jared L. Valanzola seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
