[case MNDOT Agreement #1061904] The Clay County Board of Commissioners approved the amendment to MNDOT Agreement #1061904, which includes an additional $293,478.00 in Federal Funding for a Local Road Improvement Project (LRIP). This reduces the local share required for the project. The approval was made by consent. The Clay County Board of Commissioners approved the addition of a 0.6 FTE Registered Dietitian position within the WIC program. This decision was made to address a consistently high caseload exceeding 1,400 clients per month and to improve program sustainability and client care. The approval included provisions for backfill if there is internal interest. The Clay County Board of Commissioners approved hiring an RN Lead position at Grade 19, Step 8. This decision was made to attract a Registered Nurse with extensive experience in substance use and mental illness, addressing challenges with RN recruitment and retention compared to regional hospitals. The Clay County Board of Commissioners approved a strategic staffing realignment proposal for Financial Services. This involves leaving one Child Care Licensor position vacant upon retirement and reallocating savings to hire 2 new Eligibility Worker (EW) positions. One EW will be hired in August and the second in November. This realignment aims to strengthen the Financial Services division in anticipation of changes from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) and other upcoming shifts. The Clay County Board of Commissioners approved the City of Dilworth Community Center Project Tax Abatement Bond Acknowledgment by consent.
