Klickitat County Makes Offer To Fill Jail Administrator Position

Klickitat County Commissioners announced on Monday they have selected someone it is offering the job of jail administrator.  The position is being established as Commissioners create a separate department under which the jail will operate, rather than under the Sheriff’s Office.  In a brief statement on Monday afternoon, the County said Commissioners had unanimously voted to extend a conditional offer of employment to what it called a “highly qualified” applicant for the jail administrator position.  The statement said the Commission will release more information once the post-offer hiring process is completed.  The Commission holds its regular meeting on Tuesday in Goldendale.
