Assessor requests additional staff to cover driver’s license duties in FY2027 budget
Summary
Assessor Baldwin told commissioners his FY2027 budget is largely unchanged except for the Driver’s License line; he requested hiring another employee to provide coverage when staff use paid time off because current cross-coverage is inconsistent.
Assessor Baldwin presented the FY2027 budget to the Gooding County Board of Commissioners and said most lines remain stable. He singled out the Driver’s License line and asked to add one employee to ensure coverage when the current staff member is on paid time off; Baldwin said the office currently borrows help from another office, which is not always available.
Commissioners did not take a formal vote on the request during this session; Baldwin asked that the Board consider the staffing addition as part of overall FY2027 deliberations. The request will be reconciled with countywide staffing and budget priorities before a final decision.
