Board approves 276 extra WIC LTE hours to cover extended staff leave

Oneida County Board of Health Committee · July 14, 2026

Summary

The Oneida County Board of Health Committee approved 276 temporary WIC LTE hours to cover an extended FMLA absence, contingent on WIC grant funding, and forwarded the request to the Executive Committee.

The Oneida County Board of Health Committee on July 14 approved an additional 276 limited-term employee (LTE) hours for WIC to cover a staff member on extended family medical leave, Health Department staff said. Linda Conlon, speaking for the department, said funding to cover the hours is available through the WIC grant and the request will be forwarded to the Executive Committee for final approval.

The committee moved to approve the hours (motion by Robb Jensen; second Chair Dan Hess) and voted unanimously. Conlon described the request as outside the regular budget process because it responds to unplanned FMLA leave and noted the department's WIC grant can fund the temporary hours. The action was recorded as contingent on grant funds and the committee also approved a separate set of 2027 LTE requests for further review by LRES and the Executive Committee.
