Summary

The board approved changing the Veteran Services Officer position to full‑time (40 hours/week) and keeping the assistant position part‑time (28 hours/week); the move aims to expand service availability to veterans.

Veteran Services Officer Nick Pagragan presented budget options for 2027 and advocated for a staffing model with two full‑time positions to keep the office open 40 hours per week. The board voted to change the Veteran Services Officer to a full‑time, non‑exempt 40‑hour position while retaining the assistant as a part‑time, 28‑hour role.

Commissioners recorded the motion as carried unanimously and the board agreed to forward the recommended 2027 budget to County Council for approval. The veteran services office will operate with a flexible schedule under the revised staffing arrangement.
