Northumberland Board approves personnel moves and a supplemental appropriation, sets school budget hearing

After returning from a closed session on personnel matters, the Northumberland County Board of Supervisors certified the closed meeting by roll call and then approved several routine actions.

The board approved a transfer of Morgan Wilson to the position of Finance Operations Specialist 1 effective April 1, 2026, at an annual salary of $56,500, and separately approved changing Mary Dotson’s title to Finance Operations Specialist 2 effective the same date. Both motions were moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.

The board also approved a supplemental appropriation of $9,353.08 to the county administrator line (category 1201). The motion was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.

Finally, the board discussed the school board’s proposed budget and agreed to schedule a public hearing on April 23, 2026 at 7:00 p.m.; the board directed staff to advertise using a 2% figure for the notice to preserve flexibility for final adjustments. No roll‑call vote totals for these individual motions were recorded in the transcript; each action was approved by voice vote during the open meeting that followed the closed session.
