This brings the handbook in line with current practice. o Ruby Taylor presented the approved changes to the Employee Handbook and Policy 205 Introductory Periods, Policy 303 Vacation Benefits, and Policy 309 Bereavement. These changes are reflective of the feedback received from the Employee Engagement Survey. o Elected Officials are responsible for relaying the updated information to their departments following the email update from Human Resources. • Proposed Receptionist Position for Assessor's Office and Planning & Zoning: o Dustin Barron presented the need to hire a designated receptionist for the 357 Constitution building which now houses five different departments. The initial plan for a Planning & Zoning employee to take that role has not been adequate to assist the public efficiently. Wages for this proposed position will be split between the Assessor's budget and the Planning & Zoning budget, with funds currently available. o Commissioner Michelle Mallard motioned to approve the receptionist position on the condition that the funding exists in the current budget, and no new funds will be allocated in future budgets. Commissioner Jonathan Walker seconded the motion. Commissioner Karl Casperson in favor. • Thursday Morning Orientation for Payroll & Follow-up to Monday's Employment Orientation: o Ruby Taylor presented a request for support regarding fo llow-up orientation time for new employees to take place on Thursday morning from 8:30 AM to I 0:30 AM. This time would be set aside for payroll questions and timecard training. o Concern was raised questioning the need for the follow-up session. It was requested that the follow-up session be an option, instead of mandatory. Ms. Taylor indicated that if a new employee doesn't need that time, then they will not require them to be away from their work. However, if employees are not currently allowed time to meet with payroll to get the system set up for them, that accommodation should be provided. o Commissioner Jonathan Walker motioned to approve and support the Thursday Morning Follow-up Orientation Session for new employees. Commissioner Michelle Mallard seconded the motion. Commissioner Karl Casperson was not present for this action. • Follow-up on Health Insurance Presentation from 03/3 1/2026 Elected Officials Meeting: o It was decided that a small workgroup will be assembled to review the health insurance options and provide feedback.

Bonneville County Board of Commissioners' Minutes 2026, Book 41 I 114 o Elected Officials were asked to submit employee names by email to Austin Black and Ruby Taylor so they can get this workgroup assembled. • Grade Reclassification for Jail Maintenance Supervisor Position: o Sheriff Hulse presented the request to reclassify the Jail Maintenance Supervisor position from Grade 16 to Grade 18. This position oversees all the maintenance at the jail and supervises the other jail maintenance staff. The current employee also keeps his Detention Officer certification up to date, so he does not require an additional escort into higher secure areas of the jail and is able to act as an escort to other maintenance staff. o A question was raised whether certification should be a requirement for this position, as it is not currently in the job description. It was recommended the Sheriff have two separate Supervisor positions, Grade 18 would be titled "Certified Jail Maintenance Supervisor" and would require the Detention Officer Certification and leave the Grade 16 Jail Maintenance Supervisor intact for future supervisors who are not certified. The Sheriff supported this idea and will work on revising the job description for the Grade 18 requirements. o Another question was raised about the department/budget this position is under. The Sheriff would like to see this position under his budget purview. Chris Poulter will investigate the budget concern. o Commissioner Michelle Mallard motioned to approve the reclassification with the certification requirement. Commissioner Jonathan Walker seconded the motion. Commissioner Karl Casperson was not present for this action. • Chief Deputy Sheriff Position Reactivation: o Sheriff Hulse presented the request to reactivate the Chief Deputy Sheriff position and deactivate the Law Enforcement Captain position. Anthony Glenn has been appointed Chief Deputy Sheriff to expand his scope of management. There will be no change to wages, status, or budget with this request. o Commissioner Jonathan Walker motioned to approve this request. Commissioner Michelle Mallard seconded the motion. Commissioner Karl Casperson was not present for this action. Present were Chris Poulter, County Clerk, Craig Tibbits, Treasurer, Dustin Barron, Assessor, Randy Neal, Prosecuting Attorney, Sheriff Samuel Hulse, and Shante Sanchez, Coroner.
