Consideration of Resolution to Create One (1.0) Full Time Deputy County Clerk/Program Assistant Position Outside the 2016 Budget Process.

Evert described the additional election requirements since a deputy county clerk position was eliminated in 2012.  The position would be funded with a transfer from the contingency fund in 2016 and budgeted using tax levy in 2017.  Motion by Krueger, second by Peterson to approve creation of the position.  Motion carried.

 

Consideration of Resolution to Create Two (2.0) Full Time Public Health Nurse Positions Outside the 2016 Budget Process.

Bodendein and Warwick described the Nurse Family Partnership program that helps at-risk first-time mothers.  Two additional nurses would allow 40 more families to be helped.  These nurse positions would be created contingent on a 10-year grant that will likely be awarded July 15, 2016.  The Committee discussed dependency on social programs and prevention.  Motion by Meister, second by Fish to approve creation of the positions.  Motion carried.

 

Consideration and Discussion of Annual Salary/Wage Review for 2017 in Accordance with SCCO § 13.29.

This action provides ongoing maintenance and relevance to the wage matrix, and includes all employees except the sworn unit.  Discussed percentage versus flat rate; a flat amount will not allow competitive wages at the higher end of the wage matrix.  Discussed compression issues that could arise.  The step increase system is utilized to set goals and reward, or in some cases not reward, performance.  Step increases range between 2.25% and 2.5%. 

 

Motion by Moore, second by Peterson to forward to the County Board a 0.0% increase to the non-represented wages scale for 2017.  Bychinski-No, Fish-No, Krueger-No, Peterson-Yes, White Eagle-Aye, Berlin-Yes, Meister-No, Moore-Yes, Netzinger-Yes. Motion carried.
