Summary

The board approved a full-time deputy for the assessor's office (Bobby Tevez), hired Savannah Bates part time for the auditor's office, approved raising a service contract for Keith and Miller from $8,000 to $10,000, and authorized approval of claims and payroll before adjourning.

The board approved multiple routine administrative items, including personnel hires and a service-contract increase.

A 1-44 request from the assessor's office to hire Bobby Tevez as a full-time deputy was moved, seconded and approved by the commissioners. The auditors' 1-44 request to hire Savannah Bates as a part-time staff member also passed after motion and second. Later in the meeting commissioners discussed a contract with Keith and Miller, a vendor who performs bookkeeping and reimbursement tracking; the board approved increasing that contract from $8,000 to $10,000 a year, citing the contractor’s role in recovering additional reimbursements for the county. "She's been doing this a long time," a commissioner said in support of the raise.

Finally, a motion to approve claims and payroll was moved and seconded and the board adjourned after unanimously approving those administrative items.
