The Starke County Council has set a pay rate for the county’s next Emergency Management Agency director. Former director Jacob Lippner was fired by the county commissioners back in May. They’ve since decided to make the position a part-time job going forward.
Council members decided Monday to set an hourly pay rate ranging from $15.50 to $18.50, depending on the new director’s education and experience levels. The EMA director is expected to work no more than 20 hours a week, under normal circumstances. That rate will be added into the county’s 2017 salary ordinance.
The county commissioners and members of the EMA Board plan to interview candidates for the position during an executive session Monday. The commissioners hope to hire a new EMA director during their next regular meeting.
