County approves one-step pay increases for five employees to correct probationary sequencing

Lancaster County Board of Commissioners · April 14, 2026

Summary

The Board approved Exceptional Circumstance Awards (one-step pay increases) for five Facilities and Properties employees to correct pay sequencing issues following negotiated increases during probation; Facilities Director Kerin Peterson explained the administrative rationale.

Lancaster County approved Exceptional Circumstance Awards under Personnel Rule 17.9(b) authorizing one-step pay increases for five employees (Jesus Hidalgo; Emir Osmanovic; Charlie Bordeaux; Omar Alshadeedi; Baydaa Al Khafaji). Facilities and Properties Director Kerin Peterson explained the need arose after a sequence of negotiated pay increases during employees’ probationary periods left them ineligible for step increases upon completion of probation; the awards correct that discrepancy.

The Board approved the requests unanimously (4-0). Commissioners indicated support for the correction and thanked staff for bringing the matter forward for administrative remedy.
