10. Request Approval to Fill the Auditor/Treasurer Position Due to Retirement and Approve Position

Board of Commissioners Meeting · 2026-07-14 · agenda_item

Clay County is reviewing a plan to fill the Auditor-Treasurer position following the retirement of the current officeholder. The county is seeking approval to hire a successor and allow for an overlap period between the retiring employee and the new hire. This transition is planned to ensure a smooth handover of responsibilities, including statutory, financial, and operational duties related to the Auditor-Treasurer office, DMV, and elections. The process includes reviewing a draft position description and establishing a hiring timeline. The proposed overlap period is set to run from late October to late November 2026. This situation presents opportunities for professional services related to recruitment, human resources consulting, and potentially administrative support during the transition. Engaging early could allow businesses to offer services before final hiring and training plans are set.
