Agenda Text
The Board is requested to approve the current contract with Westaff for $50,000.00
Westaff is a temporary staffing agency currently used to assist in the data entry process for the closing of the 2019 General Reappraisal data entry project that required the relisting of 117,000 parcels. The County has followed the new General Reappraisal Guidelines set forth by the NC Department of Revenue requiring that all property be relisted for the reappraisal process. To ensure the department meets the timeframe for setting value for the 2019 General Reappraisal additional data entry personnel had been required to complete the task. Temporary employees also provided relief due to open vacancies in appraisal, and current collections.
Alignment with Strategic Plan: Goal 5, Accountable, Efficient, Visionary Government. Westaff has placed several temporary staff within our organization. Several of those placements have previous tax office experience resulting in minimal downtime allowing us to be more efficient in our training efforts and data entry projects.
Resource Persons: T. Dwane Brinson, Tax Administrator
County Manager’s Recommendation: The County Manager recommends that the Board approve the contract with Westaff for temporary staffing purposes.
