SWEETWATER COUNTY – The Sweetwater County Commissioners will meet Tuesday, April 21, at 8:30 am via video conferencing.
Due to COVID-19 Coronavirus recommendations, the commissioner meeting will not be accessible at the County Courthouse.
The public is invited to watch the meeting on the Sweetwater County YouTube channel.
The public can comment immediately following the public hearing presentation at about 8:30 am, and during the public comment section of the agenda at about 8:45 am by calling 307-872-3891, or by sending comments ahead of time via email to: [email protected].
During the meeting, the commissioners will hear a presentation about the Sweewater Events Complex’s canceled events and loss of revenue due to the COVID-19 Coronavirus pandemic. Larry Lloyd, Sweetwater Events Complex executive director will be leading the presentation.
Gary McLean, Sweewater County Human Resources Director, will present a discussion of COVID-19 Emergency Operations Center compensation, as several county employees have been assigned to serve on the EOC. Exempt staff are ineligible to claim overtime, so McLean will present a few options to compensate those employees for their work on the EOC.
The options include paying the employees a bonus after the crisis, changing the status of exempt employees to non-exempt, or give the employees additional leave following the crisis.
The commissioners will also have a strategic planning discussion at the end of the regular meeting.
They will meet in executive discussion for legal and personnel matters.
