BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Previous Commission action/date: See below.
Background: 12/03/2019 - The Commission took the following action as requested by the Baldwin County Legislative Delegation:
As authorized in Article IX. of the Employment Contract, acknowledge and make a part of the record, that the Employment Contract between the Baldwin County Commission, the Baldwin County Legislative Delegation and Krista Bonner, applicable to the position of Legislative Assistant, has been terminated as of November 21, 2019, and therefore is null and void.
At this time, Cliff McCollum, Baldwin County Legislative Delegation Constituent Services Director, has requested the Commission approve an employment contract between the Commission, the BC Legislative Delegation and Ms. Brynn Amey, for the Legislative Assistant position at the Fairhope office location.
GENERAL BACKGROUND:
Applicable Baldwin County local laws authorize, among other things, the Baldwin County Legislative Delegation to select personnel who serve at the pleasure of said Delegation; further, that the personnel may be considered county employees for the purpose of being eligible for benefits; further, that the personnel may contract for employment with either the Baldwin County Commission or the Baldwin County Legislative Delegation; further, that the personnel are only paid the compensation and benefits from the Baldwin County Legislative Delegation Office Special Fund.
The Legislative Delegation's request requires the execution of an Employment Contract between the contract employee, the Legislative Delegation and the Commission. The purpose of the tri-party employment contract is simple as the Baldwin County Legislative Delegation sets the compensation and certain benefits and evaluates the assistants, the Baldwin County Commission administers a personnel system whereby the assistants are considered county employees (without merit classified protections), and the Baldwin County Commission maintains the Baldwin County Legislative Delegation Office Special Fund and whereby the assistants are compensated and benefits costs are derived.
