County draft minutes record library and Human Services staffing decisions
County draft minutes document staffing changes and October 19 approval of museum director duties and pay. Replacement hires are not confirmed.
November 5 follow-up: The county still lists the October 5 and October 19 files as the latest available commission minutes; both retrieved documents are marked DRAFT. The original September 21 file remains unavailable. The November 2 meeting date has passed, but its agenda alone does not establish that the October minutes were approved. No new hire or application opening is confirmed by this check.
October 29 source and follow-up update
The county’s original September 21 minutes link currently returns an error, so the earlier staffing details below could not be rechecked against that file today. The county’s October 5 draft minutes record approval of the September 21 minutes through the consent agenda. The October 5 document itself remains marked DRAFT.
The same October 5 draft records a vote to separate museum-director and library-director positions and to advertise and hire a museum director; job-description and salary discussion was deferred. These are reported board actions, not confirmation that a replacement has been hired or that an application is currently open. No new effective date or reason for the earlier resignations is established.
October 19 museum staffing decision
The county’s October 19 draft minutes, item 10, record unanimous approval of the museum director job description and pay grade 20.01 at $13.63 per hour. The discussion describes a 19.5-hour, part-time position. This is an approved position description and pay decision as reported in draft minutes—not confirmation of a hire or a currently open application period.
Item 11 separately records appointment of Lora Lynn Lamb to the Library Board. That board appointment is not a library-director hiring announcement.
The October 19 document is marked DRAFT. The November 2 agenda lists the October 5 and October 19 minutes for possible approval; that agenda alone does not establish that approval occurred. As checked October 29, the county employment page did not display a role-specific museum, library or Human Services advertisement. No replacement hire, application deadline, resignation effective date or service interruption is established by this update.
Earlier September 21 report
Lincoln County’s draft minutes for the September 21, 2026 commission meeting record two staffing decisions involving the library and Human Services.
Library and museum position
The draft records unanimous acceptance of Sharron Faehling’s resignation as librarian/museum director. A separate discussion of replacement duties, pay and the job description was tabled; library-board hiring responsibility was also discussed.
Human Services
The draft also records unanimous acceptance of Human Services Director Amber Box’s resignation and authorization to advertise for applications and hire a replacement.
The September 21 document used for the original report was marked draft; the October 5 follow-up above records approval of those minutes. The earlier report did not establish effective resignation dates, departure reasons, a replacement appointment or an application deadline, and they do not establish any interruption in services.
As checked September 24, the county employment page offered general application information but did not display a specific advertisement for either role. This brief reports recorded commission actions; it is not an open-job announcement. Applicants should check the county’s current postings for actual requirements and deadlines.
