12/05/2016 MINUTES 1 <br /> COMMISSIONERS' MINUTES <br />KITTITAS COUNTY, WASHINGTON <br />COMMISSIONERS CONFERENCE ROOM <br />REGULAR MEETING <br /> <br />MONDAY 9:40 A.M. DECEMBER 5, 2016 <br /> <br />Board members present: Chairman Obie O’Brien; Vice-Chairman Paul <br />Jewell & Commissioner Laura Osiadacz. <br /> <br />Others: Mandy Buchholz, Deputy Clerk of the Board; Greg Zempel, <br />Prosecutor. <br /> <br />REGULAR MEETING DEPARTMENT HEAD PROSECUTOR <br /> <br />Greg Zempel, Prosecutor reported that after the Special Meeting with <br />the Board on November 30, 2016, where departments were asked to <br />review their budgets again and make additional cuts, he has <br />$98,927.00 to cut according to Budget and Finance Manager Judy <br />Pless. The Board questioned how Mr. Zempel came up with $98,927.00. <br />He stated that it appears former Deputy Prosecutor Michael Nigrey <br />was still listed as an employee which was approximately $64,000.00 a <br />year and then he has a few long term employees who will be retiring <br />or moving on to other departments. He stated that when they re-fill <br />those positions being vacated such as Robin Raap, Admin Asst. and <br />Candace Hooper, Senior Criminal Deputy Prosecutor, they will not be <br />bringing in new hires at the top of the pay scale, where the former <br />employee left at. He stated that this will still allow him to make <br />the changes discussed in his Budget Study Session, such as changes <br />for Deputy Prosecutor Doug Mitchell and Legal Secretary Jacob <br />Schroeder. <br /> <br /> <br />Meeting adjourned at 9:50 a.m. <br /> <br /> <br />KITTITAS COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br />DEPUTY CLERK OF THE BOARD KITTITAS COUNTY, WASHINGTON <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Mandy Buchholz Obie O’Brien, Chairman <br />
