An unexpected amendment by a supervisor from Colby attempted to amend the County budget to include funding for an Administrative Coordinator.
David Holtzhausen said the county made a mistake in 2006 when they eliminated the Department of Administration and the department’s director, Barb Petkosvek.
Greenwood-area supervisor Jim Rahm agreed, saying Petkosvek served as the “eyes and ears” of the county.
"22% of our budget is tax levy. The rest comes from other sources. This is a picnic this year compared to what it's going to be next year and in years to come," Rahm said. "The state and federal government is going to seriously alter what we're going to be getting."
Several supervisors expressed their support of the concept, but thought it wasn’t wise to make such a hasty decision.
Holtzhausen eventually withdrew the motion, but it appears the idea could be up for more exploration this year.
Petkovsek is currently serving as Adams County’s Administrative Coordinator/Director of Finance.
