MINUTES OF THE ST. CROIX COUNTY FINANCE COMMITTEE
Special Meeting December 19, 2006
Meeting called to order by Chair Krueger at 8:30 a.m. Present: Clarence Malick, Daryl
Standafer, Tom Caflisch, and Stan Krueger. Absent and excused: Esther Wentz. Staff present:
Administrative Coordinator Chuck Whiting, Corporation Counsel Greg Timmerman, Finance
Director Michelle Pietrick, Health and Human Services Director Fred Johnson, Nursing Home
Administrator Bill VanOfferen and County Clerk Cindy Campbell.
Motion by Standafer, 2 by Caflisch to adopt the agenda. Carried unanimously. The next
scheduled meeting is January 4, 2007.
OLD AND NEW BUSINESS:
1. Positions Description Approval: MDS /Staff Education Nurse (HHS /NH). Fred
Johnson and Bill VanOfferen explained there were two administrative nurse positions, one for
the first floor and one for the second floor. Through some re- organization there is now one nurse
manager and one MDS /Education Nurse who is taking over responsibility of the second
administrative nurse. Johnson explained the MDS nurse is responsible for medicare and
medicaid reimbursements. The proposed position description accurately reflects the
MDS /Education Nurse position. Motion by Caflisch, 2' by Malick for approval. Krueger
confirmed this is a cost reduction. Carried unanimously.
2. Nursing Home Non -Union and Temporary Positions Pay Plan. Whiting explained the
proposed resolution covers approval of the wage grid, 2007 wages for non -union employees,
nursing home non -union and temporary employees. Discussion regarding wages. Motion by
Malick, 2 by Caflisch to adopt the resolution but amend the proposal for no increase for non-
union nursing home employees for 2007. Johnson stated PAWG could come back quickly with a
nursing home pay package to look at positions in detail. Motion by Malick, 2nd by Caflisch to
withdraw motion. Motion by Malick, 2 by Caflisch to strike from the proposed resolution with
any reference to non -union nursing home employees and with that stricken recommend to the
County Board for approval. Carried unanimously.
3. Condemnation Commissioners' Compensation. Timmerman explained the Finance
Committee passed a motion in November to increase the rate of compensation paid to County
condemnation commissioners. The rates approved were $20 per hour for the commissioners and
$25 per hour for the chairperson. The statute says commissioners, including the chairperson, are
to receive the same rate of pay, but the chairperson gets paid for extra time spent on
administrative duties. The statute also requires mileage reimbursement, which was not included
in the original motion. The resolution complies with the statutes. Motion by Malick, 2 by
Standafer to approve. Carried unanimously.
Meeting adjourned at 8:45 a.m.
Cindy Campbell, Recording Secretary
