Commissioners approve converting part-time treasurer position to full-time motor vehicle clerk in 3-2 vote
Summary
The Board of Pottawatomie County Commissioners voted 3-2 to convert a part-time office administration secretary in the County Treasurer’s office to a full-time motor vehicle clerk after a request from Treasurer Lisa Wright and Deputy Amy Haselhorst.
County Treasurer Lisa Wright and Deputy Treasurer Amy Haselhorst asked the Board of Pottawatomie County Commissioners on June 29 to change a part-time office administration secretary position into a full-time motor vehicle clerk, citing operational needs in motor vehicle services.
Commissioner Deloyce McKee moved to approve the reclassification; Commissioner Gary Yenzer seconded. The motion carried 3-2. Commissioners Merl Page and Bill Drew voted against the change, saying the request should have been handled during the 2027 budget process. The board roll call recorded Force (yes), McKee (yes), Yenzer (yes), Page (no), Drew (no).
The minutes do not specify costs or a specific effective date for the personnel change. The record shows Page said he “does not like making those changes in the middle of the year” and Drew said the request should have been included in the 2027 budget discussion. No further amendments or implementation details were recorded; follow-up on budgetary impacts was not specified.
