Board schedules special Aug. 6 interviews at MSU as administrator search continues

Commissioners discussed scheduling interviews for the county administrator vacancy and agreed to hold a special meeting and interview session at 3:00 p.m. on Aug. 6 at the MSU building, with an executive committee meeting and the regular 6:00 p.m. board meeting following. Several commissioners discussed availability and preferences for interview days and the possibility of holding meet-and-greets with departments as part of the process.

The board chair directed staff to publish the special meeting; commissioners discussed logistics including possible hospitality from MSU and timing between interview sessions and the evening meeting. No final appointment was made at the meeting; the interviews and any appointment would follow the advertised special meeting and the committee's review.
