The Clinton County Commissioners convened on January 2, 2025, for their first meeting of the year, which included a series of administrative approvals and appointments. The meeting commenced with the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by a call for public comments, allowing citizens to participate via phone.
The agenda began with the approval of minutes from the previous meeting held on December 19, 2024, which passed unanimously. The Commissioners then moved to appoint key officials, including the chief clerk, solicitor, and chief assessor, effective January 1, 2025, with all motions receiving affirmative votes.
A significant item on the agenda was the approval of an annual allocation of $195,861 for the Central Counties Youth Center, which will be distributed in four installments throughout the year. This allocation aims to support youth services in the region.
The board also approved a lease agreement for a copier for the Clinton County probation office, along with a renewal for website maintenance and hosting services, ensuring continued operational support for county functions.
In a notable move to enhance employee retention, the Commissioners approved a memorandum of understanding with Council 86 of AFSCME. This agreement amends the collective bargaining contract for sheriff's deputies, increasing their starting salary by $975 annually, effective from the first pay period of 2025. The agreement also extends the current contract through December 31, 2026.
Further amendments to collective bargaining agreements were made for corrections officers and maintenance workers at the Clinton County Correctional Facility, addressing similar vacation and holiday policies.
The meeting concluded with the resignation of Mary George Roan from the Clinton County Housing Authority, effective December 31, 2024, and the appointment of Tina Daevor to the same authority for a five-year term.
Following the adjournment of the Commissioners meeting, the board transitioned into the Salary Board session, where they planned to review salary motions by department. The meeting underscored the county's commitment to governance and employee welfare as it began the new year.
