The Habersham County Board of Commissioners will meet tonight to discuss several agenda items, including the creation of two new county positions.
The commission recently approved the creation of a county airport manager, and is scheduled to discuss the creation of a temporary part-time magistrate judge position and an emergency radio system administrator position tonight.
The commission will discuss what those positions would entail and what costs the county would be looking at, as well as possible budgetary amendments for those positions, at their meeting.
The commission will also discuss moving forward with a pay study, something the county has expressed a need for on multiple occasions. County Manager Alicia Vaughn spoke in January about how a pay study will help the county understand how to improve county employee pay, which the commissioners say is not comparable to the pay rates in neighboring counties.
The meeting will take place at the Habersham County Courthouse on Monday, Feb. 21 at 6:00 p.m., and will be livestreamed here. A work session will precede the meeting at 5:00 p.m. at the courthouse.
