1/25/2016 MINUTES 1 <br /> COMMISSIONERS' MINUTES <br />KITTITAS COUNTY, WASHINGTON <br />COMMISSIONERS CONFERENCE ROOM <br />REGULAR MEETING <br /> <br />MONDAY 9:40 A.M. JANUARY 25, 2016 <br /> <br />Board members present: Chairman Obie O’Brien, Vice-Chairman Paul <br />Jewell & Commissioner Gary Berndt. <br /> <br />Others: Mandy Buchholz, Deputy Clerk of the Board; Judge James <br />Hurson; Judge Darrel Ellis & Lisa Young, HR Director. <br /> <br />REGULAR MEETING DEPARTMENT HEAD HUMAN RESOURCES <br /> <br />At 9:55 a.m. Lisa Young, HR Director presented the Board with the <br />two PAF’s that were previously considered and the Board requested <br />additional discussion with Judge Hurson and Judge Ellis. <br /> <br />Judge Hurson explained that he was very confused since he provided <br />everything required and the increase for the Court Administrator was <br />approved through the budget. He didn’t understand why further <br />discussion was required. Commissioner Jewell stated that in this <br />particular situation he felt the Board just flat made a mistake. He <br />stated that they were paying attention to so many details in the <br />budget process that this somehow slipped through. He apologized and <br />stated that with the signals given he could see where the confusion <br />came from, but that just because it’s approved in the budget doesn’t <br />guarantee it will happen. Judge Ellis echoed Judge Hurson’s <br />discussion and stated that he has been working on getting his <br />District Court Administrator’s wage where it should have been when <br />Ms. MacKenzie was promoted a few years back. <br /> <br />The Board asked that both Judge Hurson and Judge Ellis to be patient <br />as the Board is trying to accomplish some level of implementation of <br />the wage survey done by HR. They explained that their input will be <br />needed throughout the process. They assured both Judge Hurson and <br />Judge Ellis that the error will not happen again. <br /> <br />Meeting adjourned at 10:25 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 />
