Weed board to interview coordinator candidate after receiving one application; members ask whether Ag Exemption can expand seasonal hours
Summary
The Wahkiakum County Noxious Weed Board reported receipt of one application for its coordinator position and agreed to schedule interviews; members also asked whether an agricultural exemption could allow extra seasonal hours for the role.
The board reported on Jan. 5 that it has received one application for the WCNWB coordinator position and agreed that interviews should be held promptly. Chair Todd Souvenir said he will contact the applicant and notify board members of the interview date; he also will contact The Eagle to advertise the special meeting once the date is set.
Board members discussed whether an agricultural (Ag) exemption could be used to authorize additional seasonal hours for the coordinator role during spring and summer. Kay Walters asked whether an Ag Exemption could be applied to allow for more hours for this position during the spring and summer months; the board discussed the possibility but did not record a formal direction or decision. No start date, hourly detail or hiring timeline beyond scheduling interviews was recorded in the meeting minutes.
The board asked to move the interview process quickly; final hiring decisions and any change to authorized hours will depend on subsequent meetings and budget or policy approvals.
