Treasurer seeks overtime approval, board defers decision after briefing on HB 5880 and HB 5872
Summary
Treasurer Tina Massey presented information on House Bills 5880 and 5872 and requested overtime authorization for her office; commissioners raised budget and equity concerns and deferred the decision to a future agenda.
Treasurer Tina Massey told the board the 2025 audit was completed and submitted to the state and said auditors "recommend we have a grant policy." She also presented information on House Bills 5880 and 5872 at the board's request and asked for board approval of overtime hours for the treasurer's office, saying comp time had been removed from the union contract and she "feels the need for overtime."
Commissioners discussed budget impacts, parity among offices and the board's role in fiscal oversight. Commissioner Austin Kimberling emphasized the board must do due diligence on budget items; Commissioner Judy St. Louis-Scott said approving significant overtime for one office could prompt similar requests from other offices. The board moved the overtime decision to the next meeting for further consideration.
