• The county’s new grants writer is Erica Weeks, who previously worked in the elections department. Weeks, a West Slope native, worked at the state capitol in the Senate Majority Office. She has a bachelor of arts degree in political science.
The grants writer position was previously a shared position; however, the commissioners redistributed the job’s responsibilities from full- to part-time without increasing the number of full-time employees. The move was made in an effort to direct more attention at pursuing state and federal funding opportunities, the county said in a news release.
