(Audubon) Audubon County will cover the cost of new hires to obtain their Commercial Driver’s License.
The County Engineer and County Attorney have put together a new CDL Agreement. Supervisor’s Chairman Doug Sorensen explain, “CDL’s became more difficult to obtain. You have to have a training now. It costs money. Somewhere around $2,400-$2,500 to get that CDL. So for new hires in Secondary Roads we are paying that and then we are having the employee sign an agreement so they don’t take the training and start with us and then leave and go somewhere else with their new CDL.”
The Board of Supervisor’s approved the agreement during their meeting on Tuesday.
