Two Down in the County Building and Planning Department

DAYTON--It was confirmed by the BOCC at last week’s regular meeting that County Planner Greg Abramson has been terminated from his job at the County Building and Planning Department, with no reason given. Abramson has been a Senior Planner/Building Inspector for the county since 2015.

When asked about the shortage of staff in the Planning Department, Commissioner Norm Passmore said, “We’re working on that.”

When fully staffed the Planning and Building Department will have three employees; a director, an assistant and code enforcement officer Clint Atteberry, who will also perform building inspection.

Passmore said the commissioners have been conducting interviews to find a replacement for Planning Director Kim Lyonnais, who retired early in November.

They named Meagan Bailey as the new Planning Director on Tues., Dec. 19.
