Public works asks to fill three engineering and solid-waste vacancies
Summary
Public works asked commissioners to authorize three hires: an associate engineer at a step-4 start, a senior engineer at step 5, and to restore the solid-waste manager to its previous salary grade; commissioners tentatively supported recruitment but said staff may return if filling roles proves difficult.
Public works staff member Jessica asked the board to allow hiring for three vacant positions: an associate engineer at step 4, a senior engineer at step 5, and to restore the solid-waste manager to the prior salary grade and pay scale. Jessica said the recommended steps reflect the experience of the candidates before the county.
Commissioners said they were generally supportive and noted they might revisit the requests if recruiting proves difficult. The request included specific monthly amounts as stated in the discussion: the associate engineer step 4 was listed in the transcript as "$74.11" a month; the senior engineer step 5 was listed as "$10,002" a month; and the restored solid-waste manager grade was voiced as a range including "$88.90 to $11,113" a month. Staff said they will return if they have trouble filling the positions.
The board did not take a formal recorded vote during the discussion; commissioners provided informal assent and staff were instructed to proceed with recruitment and to come back with any issues or requests for adjustments.
