Supervisors approve temporary administrative stipends and reclassify maintenance position

Jackson County Board of Supervisors · February 3, 2026

Summary

Following the retirement of the board's executive assistant, supervisors approved one-time $1,500 stipends for five auditor's office staff who will assume administrative duties and reclassified a maintenance custodian to facility maintenance worker at $27.78 per hour effective Feb. 2, 2026.

The board approved temporary one-time stipends of $1,500 each for five members of the auditor's office (Alicia Smith, Shelley Hoy, Mary Stickley, Kalyn Decker and Nicole Stratman) who will perform administrative support functions after the retirement of the executive assistant; the auditor was authorized to implement payroll changes. County staff described the stipend as temporary while the county evaluates whether to maintain the arrangement or hire in the future.

Separately the board approved a reclassification of an existing maintenance custodian position to a facility maintenance worker at a rate of $27.78 per hour effective 02/02/2026. Staff said the position's duties have expanded over the last two years to include more maintenance activities beyond custodial tasks and praised the employee for taking on responsibilities at multiple county buildings. "They have really stepped up without question," a board member said in support of the reclassification.
