Summary

After discussing workloads and coverage, commissioners told staff to add a proposed assistant director for ambulance service — $65,000 salary plus roughly $30,000 in benefits — to the next draft and to show the impact on the revenue‑neutral calculation.

Commissioners agreed during the workshop to include an assistant‑director position in the ambulance fund for the next draft budget. The presenter described the proposal in the packet: "Still thinking about adding an assistance director to the ambulance fund, which would be 65,000 pay and 30,000 benefits." Commissioners and staff discussed timing, operational need and how the position would affect the employee‑benefit fund and the revenue‑neutral calculation.

By consensus, commissioners asked staff to add the $65,000 personnel amount and the associated benefit cost into the draft so the board could see the net levy effect. There was no formal roll call vote during the workshop; the instruction was direction to staff for the revised packet.
