Purpose

THE CREATION OF ONE FULL-TIME MARKETING COORDINATOR POSITION FOR THE ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT 

Background

This is a request to create a Marketing Coordinator position for the Administration Department by reclassifying the current Executive Assistant position.  While the position will continue to provide some assistance and administration of daily office operations, the Marketing Coordinator position would be responsible for developing and executing marketing, outreach, and community engagement strategies for Sauk County programs, services, and events.  The new description is recognizing the role and responsibilities that have been tasked to this position over the last couple of years.

Budget Status (Other/External Sources): 

The reclassification of the position would move the pay grade to higher band, which more accurately aligns with the responsibilities of the position.  There will be a budgetary impact; however, with a vacancy in the department, the increase through the later half of the year will be covered by the existing budget.  The existing position is funded by sales tax revenue.

Resolution Body

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that effective May 24th, 2026, the Marketing Coordinator position will be created. The current Executive Assistant position will be eliminated with the creation of this position.

 

Approved for presentation to the County Board by the Executive & Legislative Committee and the Finance, Personnel & Insurance Committee, this 19th day of May 2026.
