Overview: During a recent Grant County Board of Commissioners meeting, the board voted to terminate the employment of Jeff Merrick, the county’s facilities manager. The decision followed a discussion about Merrick’s performance and responsibilities, highlighting challenges he faced since the retirement of a key colleague. Merrick, who had served in the role for 13 years, explained that since February, he was expected to manage both his duties and those of the building maintenance worker, who had retired. He expressed that his inability to meet all tasks stemmed from being overburdened, as he was covering two full-time roles.
