Board approves step-and-grade changes for county attorney's office
Summary
The board approved step/grade adjustments and an additional attorney position after the county attorney outlined recruitment challenges and the need for a lead-attorney role; two attorney positions were excluded from the COLA.
Diana, speaking for the county attorney's office, asked the board to approve step-and-grade changes that raise some attorney grades (proposing movement from grade 23 to 25 for experienced trial attorneys and creating a lead-attorney role). She said the changes reflect recruitment realities and the need to lift lower attorney salaries to attract qualified applicants.
Commissioners approved the proposed grade and step changes and a requested additional position. Diana also noted that the newly created lead-attorney role and certain recent hires would be exempt from the countywide COLA approved later in the meeting.
