Commissioners approve hiring a part‑time facilities technician for courthouse

Steve explained the courthouse needs an additional part-time facilities tech to cover an upcoming April retirement and current staffing shortages: "I am asking for a part time employee for here at the courthouse," he said, noting multiple staff departures and impending school enrollments that will reduce available staff.

Commissioner McElhaney moved to approve hiring the part-time Facilities Tech I; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote. The hire is intended to provide overlap and on‑the‑job training so the new hire can transition into the full position when it becomes vacant next year.
