(KNZA)--The Brown County Commission on Monday approved hiring of three new employees.
The Commission voted to hire Brandon Rader as solid waste director at a starting salary of $19 an hour; Richard Rodvelt as noxious weed director at a starting salary of $20 an hour and John “ Barry” Schuetz as District 2 crewman at a starting salary of $18 an hour.
George Bruning, who currently serves as Noxious Weed and Solid Waste Director, is retiring effective December 20.
The hirings reflect a separation of Bruning's duties into two separate positions.
Commissioner Richard Lehmkuhl recommended that Rodvelt and Rader stagger their start dates in order to allow both to have one-on-one training with Bruning prior to being on their own.
