Summary

The board granted a temporary remote-work arrangement through Oct. 17 for the Assessor's chief deputy so she can complete state reports and appeals; replacement staff will start Oct. 27.

At the Oct. 7 meeting HR Director Michelle Portwood asked the board to permit the Assessor's chief deputy to work remotely through Oct. 17. Portwood said the deputy had resigned but needed to remain on duty until Oct. 17 to complete required state reports and to review appeals; the replacement employee is scheduled to start Oct. 27. Commissioner Frank Loop moved to approve the limited remote arrangement "for this period only and for this employee only," Jason Sharp seconded the motion and the board approved it unanimously.

The approval is explicitly time-limited to the dates presented and applies only to the named deputy, according to Portwood's request recorded in the minutes. The board did not amend the county remote-work policy; this action is a narrow personnel accommodation documented in the meeting record.
