Board approves FTE schedule including public‑works staffing; commissioners back workforce reentry idea
Alachua County commissioners unanimously approved the proposed FTE schedule, which includes new sports‑event positions, consolidation of part‑time law‑library roles, and 13 staffing requests to replenish units shifted to pothole work. Commissioners supported exploring a structured workforce reentry/apprenticeship program to fill vacancies quickly.
