Animal shelter proposes supervisory roles; committee forwards cost-neutral reclassification
Summary
Animal shelter staff proposed creating lead roles and a lead animal-control officer to improve retention and operations; staff said the budget increase is $11,771.76 and covered within the shelter's budget; the committee moved the recommendation to the full board.
Staff from the county animal shelter told the committee they have expanded operations since 2019 but do not yet have intermediate leadership positions, and proposed lead-attendant and lead-animal-control-officer roles to improve supervision and staff retention.
The presenter told the committee the net cost increase is $11,771.76 and that the change will be covered within the shelter's current budget rather than by a general-fund request. The committee voted unanimously to forward the recommendation to the full board.
