(Atlantic) The Cass County Board of Supervisors, Wednesday afternoon, agreed to Treasurer Tracey J. Marshall’s request to hire three new staffers for the Treasurer’s Office, following the loss of some staffers and the upcoming retirement of another. The Board agreed to pay those individuals $18-dollars per hour, with an increase to $19-dollars per hour after 90-days and a review of performance. After six-months, the new staff would be paid $20-dollars per hour.

Marshall said two of the new staff can start right away. The third person will be available in the coming week. As it stands currently, the office is closed all day on Tuesdays, for staff training. It’s open the rest of the week from 8:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., closed from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m., open from 1:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Board Chairman Steve Baier asked Marshall how long she was anticipating having to run abbreviated service hours.

If there are any future changes to her office hours, Marshall said she would keep the public updated via the media and postings on the courthouse entrances, as well as the Treasurer’s Office doors.
