Custer County advances three OEM applicants to interview and will continue advertising the director post

After an executive session on personnel matters, the Custer County Board of Commissioners on June 17 reported back and took two personnel actions on the Office of Emergency Management (OEM) director recruitment: they voted to advance applicants 2, 3 and 4 into an interview process with commissioners (interviews tentatively scheduled for next Tuesday) and they voted to continue advertising the position while interviews proceed.

The board appointed commissioners to conduct interviews and discussed logistics (possible afternoon interview times and inclusion of an expert panelist). The motion to advance the three applicants was moved, seconded and approved; commissioners also authorized continuing to post the job for at least one month and to amend posting dates as needed. County staff will finalize scheduling and notify applicants and participating commissioners.
