Committee discusses Fair Coordinator pay grade change and cost implications
Summary
Bayfield County's Personnel Committee reviewed a proposed regrade for the Fair Coordinator position from Grade H to Grade I and discussed countywide implications; placing affected employees at equivalent steps would cost about $38,000 plus benefits, and the committee will reconsider the matter in May 2026.
The committee discussed moving the Fair Coordinator position from Grade H to Grade I and the wage impacts of that reclassification on the incumbent and other affected employees.
Tourism Director Mary Motiff shared a handout outlining placement impacts and the committee noted that employees had been placed on the new wage schedule at a step reflecting no less than a 4.5% increase over their 2025 wage. Committee members calculated that placing all affected employees at the step that would preserve their prior wage would cost "a total of approximately $38,000 plus FICA, medicare, WRS, work comp." The committee said any decision would affect all impacted employees and leaned toward adjusting placements by moving employees to the next step in the new grade.
Committee members will revisit the issue at the May meeting to consider adjustments for all affected employees; the minutes note the committee's consensus but do not record a final decision.
