Summary

The McLeod County Board approved a one-year agreement with Keystone Compensation Group for up to $15,750 to maintain the county's compensation program, with funds from the countywide budget.

McLeod County commissioners on Tuesday approved a one-year compensation services agreement with Keystone Compensation Group of Minneapolis for an amount not to exceed $15,750, with payment coming from the countywide budget. The board voted to approve the contract after staff described the arrangement as a budgeted, recurring expense.

County staff said Keystone has worked with McLeod County since 2014 and that the service supports the county’s compensation plan by maintaining up-to-date salary data and helping with pay decisions. A staff presenter described the service as an annual maintenance and consultation arrangement and said the county brings the agreement to the board each year for approval.

Commissioners discussed the value of keeping compensation data current. One commissioner called the service “a very valuable tool” for maintaining the county’s compensation plan and positioning employees appropriately. The board then voted to approve the agreement; the motion carried.

This action is limited to approving the vendor agreement and funding for the 2025 maintenance period. The board did not direct additional studies or funding changes at the meeting.
