District pauses hiring, weighs merging roles and using COPS grant to cover salaries
Summary
Committee members noted a pause on filling positions, discussed merging roles to save costs, and said some salaries may be covered by a COPS grant; Eisenbarth is working on the grant details and end‑of‑year RIF considerations.
The finance committee recorded a pause on filling vacant positions as the district reassesses staffing plans in light of tightening revenue and reduced grants.
Members discussed whether some positions could be merged rather than filled and noted that, as in the prior year, some salaries could be paid from a COPS grant; the transcript indicates Eisenbarth is working on the grant details. The notes also mention EOY reduction‑in‑force (RIF) considerations tied to grant funding and staffing levels.
No specific personnel actions or RIF votes were taken during the meeting; the committee asked staff to return with more detailed options for managing vacancies and grant‑funded salary coverage.
