Pine County redesignates accounting role as grant and programs coordinator, approves HHS backfills
Summary
The board approved redesignating a vacant accounting technician post as a grant and programs coordinator (cost split between Health & Human Services and general funds) and authorized backfills for several HHS and corrections vacancies; one commissioner recorded opposition on the personnel package.
Pine County commissioners voted to redesignate an existing vacant accounting technician position in Health & Human Services as a grant and programs coordinator, and approved backfills for multiple recent HHS and corrections resignations.
County Administrator Dave Minkie said the redesignation addresses grant coordination needs and that the new position’s cost will be split between Health & Human Services and the general fund, with no net levy impact in the 2025 budget. The board acknowledged resignations — including social workers Andrea Anderson (effective Jan. 24) and Angela Ripley (effective Jan. 17) — and authorized recruitment to backfill those roles. The motion to approve the personnel committee recommendations passed on roll call with one recorded opposition.
