COMMISSIONERS’ MINUTES <br />KITTITAS COUNTY, WASHINGTON <br />BOCC CONFERENCE ROOM <br />REGULAR MEETING <br />HR STUDY SESSION <br /> <br />TUESDAY 10:00 AM MAY 8, 2018 <br /> <br />Board members present: Laura Osiadacz, Obie O’Brien <br />Others: Elishia Harvill, Lisa Young, Jeanne Killgore <br /> <br />1. CALL TO ORDER <br />The meeting was called to order at 10:00 AM. <br /> <br />2. STAFFING DISCUSSION/DECISION – PROSECUTOR – ASSISTANT OA <br />HR Director Young presented an overview of the Prosecutor’s Office proposal to create an exempt <br />Assistant Office Administrator position. The proposed Assistant Office Administrator would support the <br />Office Administrator by taking on some of the supervisory and administrative workload. The creation of <br />an Assistant Office Administrator would eliminate the Legal Secretary III (LS III) position, and the current <br />LS III would be reclassified to the Assistant Office Administrator position. <br />HR Director Young and Office Administrator Harvill provided a draft job description, two wage scale <br />options, funding sources (not “one-time” and supported by Judy), and performance <br />metrics/accomplishments of the Office Administrator and LS III. The preference of the Prosecutor is to <br />implement Option A and they have located funds to do so. Funding includes a combination of 3/10, VW <br />and the General Fund. Use of General Fund dollars is supported by the amount of work the LS III does to <br />assist non-Prosecutor departments with Records Management and Public Records Requests. Both <br />Board members had concerns about the impact on the General Fund, and requested a breakdown of <br />how much each fund (3/10, VW and General Fund) would contribute. There was also concern expressed <br />over past decreases in VW funding. Commissioner Osiadacz inquired about Option B. Based on the <br />information provided, Commissioner Osiadacz stated that Option B would have the least amount of <br />impact on the General Fund, and she would prefer that. Commissioner O’Brien and Commissioner <br />Osiadacz requested that Administrator Harvill gather more specific data regarding the funding options, <br />and suggested that she figure out a way to fund for this proposal without impacting the General Fund. <br /> <br />3.
