Mills County board approves hiring of engineering technician
Summary
The Mills County Board approved hiring Isaac Degansel as an engineering technician at $29.87 per hour with a six-month probationary period; staff recommended an August 10 start date.
The Mills County Board voted to hire Isaac Degansel as an engineering technician at $29.87 per hour, with the position carrying a six‑month probationary period. The motion to hire was made and seconded and carried on a voice vote.
County roads staff recommended Degansel after a recruitment process that produced applicants with DOT certifications and surveying experience; staff said the candidate "has 3 out of his 4 DOT certifications" and had worked previously as a highway technician and on the contractor side. The board discussed start logistics; staff recommended an August 10 start date. No roll-call vote was recorded in the transcript—clerks recorded affirmative "Aye" responses during the voice vote.
The action will add an engineering technician to the Secondary Roads staffing roster; staff noted the new hire can also support surveying and GPS rover work. The board did not attach conditions beyond the standard probationary period and directed staff to complete hiring paperwork.
