Board raises Child Support Specialist to Grade 7 following market review
Summary
Resolution 2026-4081 reclassifies the Child Support Specialist position from Grade 5 to Grade 7 based on a market comparison; the board said the change aligns compensation with surrounding counties and responsibilities.
The Iron County Board of Supervisors approved Resolution 2026-4081 on May 26, 2026, changing the Child Support Specialist classification from Grade 5 to Grade 7 after a review of comparable positions in surrounding counties.
The resolution notes that Cottingham and Butler completed a comprehensive wage and classification study for Iron County and that a focused review showed the Child Support Specialist role is equivalent to Grade 7 in the county's classification and compensation plan. The board found it necessary to adjust the grade to remain competitive and to reflect the position's responsibilities. Supervisor Francis moved the resolution and Supervisor Stutz seconded; the motion carried with all present voting yes.
The resolution references attached addenda (a position description and a summary of comparable positions) but the meeting did not include line-item budgetary figures tied to the change. Department staffing and payroll adjustments will be processed consistent with the county's classification plan.
