She <br />explained that the Auditor’s Office hired her and she accepted due <br />to needing benefits. She wanted the Board to help her brainstorm <br />possible solutions so that we were not continually hiring and losing <br />this position. She stated that she feels like it will continue <br />because of the need for benefits and it’s a very low paying <br />position. She stated that the position is not receiving qualified <br />applicants and doesn’t know what to do. <br /> <br />The Board and Ms. Kjorsvik did some brainstorming of possible <br />solutions. <br /> <br />She was directed to look into the budget impacts if they were to <br />pursue any discussed options and report back to the Board with a <br />proposal. They stressed that Ms. Kjorsvik needs to keep in mind the <br />importance of the business needs and keep personal feelings out of <br />decisions. <br /> <br />OTHER BUSINESS- <br /> <br />Commissioner Berndt gave a brief update on the Gran Fondo Special <br />Event Application status. <br /> <br />Meeting adjourned at 11:25 a.m. <br /> <br /> <br />KITTITAS COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br />DEPUTY CLERK OF THE BOARD KITTITAS COUNTY, WASHINGTON <br /> <br /> <br />
