Supervisors permit advertising for temporary employee as staff reshuffles responsibilities
Summary
With a departing staffer, the board approved permission to advertise for a 15-hour temporary position and to increase Diana Ray's hours from 11 to 15, funded from the outgoing employee's salary; one supervisor asked to consult with a county HR contact before final arrangements.
County staff told the board that after the departure of John Pfeiffer the office needed more coverage to handle court-related work, jury preparation and routine inquiries. The presenter said the plan was to increase Diana Ray's hours from 11 to 15 per week and to advertise for a separate 15-hour temporary employee, with pay drawn from the vacant position's former salary.
"We really just need some people there, bodies," the speaker said, describing jury schedules and the workload in the courthouse. One supervisor said they wanted to confer with Mike Galloway before finalizing the staffing specifics; the board nonetheless voted to grant permission to advertise and collect applications, with one member reserving a 'no' vote pending consultation.
The temporary position was described as part-time without benefits; staff emphasized the county would attempt broad posting to attract qualified candidates given regional competition for attorneys and legal staff.
