Background and Discussion:

In 2022, Court allocated $100,000 to assist newly elected officials’ transition into County office. These funds were used to help begin the transition of a County office from one elected official to another. The ability to begin that transition quickly positions the departments to continue to provide vital county services seamlessly.

 

 

Expected Impact:

This item will help to increase the speed and efficiency of leadership transitions in County departments.

 

 

Alternative Options:

Court can choose to not approve this item and newly elected officials will have to rely on other resources to help transition to their new offices.
