COMMISSIONERS’ MINUTES <br />KITTITAS COUNTY, WASHINGTON <br />WEBEX <br />SPECIAL MEETING <br />HR STUDY SESSION <br /> <br />WEDNESDAY 11:00 AM 6/23/2021 <br /> <br />Board members present: Brett Wachsmith, Cory Wright <br />Others: Elishia Harvill, Christopher Horner, Lisa Young, Taylor Crouch <br /> <br />CALL TO ORDER <br />The meeting was called to order at 11:00 AM. <br />DISCUSSION/DECISION – PROSECUTOR – STAFFING REQUEST <br />HR Director Young introduced a staffing request for the Prosecutor’s Office. Chief Administrator Harvill <br />summarized that their office’s Administrative Supervisor has transitioned into another role, leaving that <br />position vacant. She requested approval to promote one of their Legal Assistants as well as the <br />Technology Specialist into the role of Administrative Supervisor. One position would supervise the Legal <br />Assistants while the other position would supervise the Receptionist, Office Worker, and interns. <br />Administrator Harvill also requested to promote their Office Worker to Legal Assistant I. The Legal <br />Assistant and Technology Specialist would continue to perform their current duties, therefore removing <br />the need to backfill those positions. Administrator Harvill explained that the proposed restructuring <br />would better balance the administrative and supervisory tasks throughout the Prosecutor’s Office. <br />While the Office Worker position would need to be backfilled, the changes would save money by using <br />existing staff perform supervisory duties in addition to their current roles. The Board approved the <br />request and directed the Prosecutor’s Office to move forward. <br />EXECUTIVE SESSION – 42.30.110 (1)(i) TO DISCUSS WITH LEGAL COUNSEL REPRESENTING THE AGENCY <br />MATTERS RELATING TO AGENCY ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS, OR TO DISCUSS WITH LEGAL COUNSEL <br />REPRESENTING THE AGENCY LITIGATION OR POTENTIAL LITIGATION TO WITH THE AGENCY, THE <br />GOVERNING OBDY, OR MEMBER ACTING IN AN OFFICIAL CAPACITY IS, OR IS LIKELY T O BECOME, A <br />PARTY, WHEN PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE REGARDING THE DISCUSSION IS LIKELY TO RESULT IN AN ADVERSE <br />LEGAL OF FINANCIAL CONSEQUENCE TO THE AGENCY. <br />The Board entered executive session at 11:06 AM to discuss potential litigation for five minutes. <br />Anticipated action; none.
