CADILLAC â The Wexford County Administrator s contract extension was approved Wednesday during the Wexford County Board of Commissioners meeting.
The board voted 7-2 to extend a 30-month contract extension to Wexford County Administrator Janet Koch. Commissioners Joe Hurlburt and Julie Theobald voted against the contract extension. While neither gave their reasons during the virtual meeting, before the vote Hurlburt said he didn t want to see the contract go longer than 24 months.
Commissioner Ben Townsend, who made the motion for the contract extension, said part of the reason he wanted to have the 30-month extension was it allowed the board to move the administrator s evaluation process to August. That would allow time for new commissioners to get familiar with the administrator and their duties rather than shortly after they take office in February.
