30, 1998 report from the Alternative Financing Committee to the LOG member governing boards, there will be a shortfall of between $1.8 million and $3.8 million annually over the next ten years, if only current revenue sources are contemplated to finance the programs outlined in the ISWMP. The Alternative Financing Committee concluded its work early in 1999 without reaching consensus on the best mix of revenue streams to finance the ISWMP. With the assumption that the solid waste agreement is finalized and signed by the end of September, and given the 180 day period specified in the agreement as the transition period from signing to transfer of solid waste responsibility to the County, staff believes a reasonable target for handover will be March 6, 2000. This will provide adequate time to: ❑ Complete a job classification study of the 28 positions that will be transferred from the Town of Chapel Hill to the County, and determine each position's classification and salary grade assignment in the County Classification and Pay Plan. ❑ Update and complete the detailed pay and benefits study, and resolve any issues as to the handling to provide for substantially equivalent pay and benefits with the transfer. ❑ Report on the proposed pay and benefits handling to the Board of Commissioners and request approval for the Classification Plan amendments, and pay and benefits handling necessary for the proposed pay and benefits package. ❑ Develop and provide each employee with an information package including specific information as to his or her classification, pay, and benefits under the pay and benefits handling approved by the Commissioners. ❑ As part of the transition, carry out a communications program with employees, including meeting with employees as a group to report on the pay and benefits handling and meeting individually with each employee to review the specific pay and benefits handling for that employee. ❑ Conduct benefits enrollment sessions with employees to complete benefits sign up. ❑ Complete all pay, benefit and other documentation necessary to place employees on the County payroll and in the County personnel system. ❑ Complete a new employee orientation program to orient employees to County policies and procedures. ❑ Train solid waste employees regarding County fiscal and administrative policies and procedures. ❑ Ensure compatibility between the landfill billing and collection system and the County's general ledger, and resolve issues related to money deposit issues. o Accomplish adoption of budget amendment bringing the Landfill Fund into the County's budget and conversion of the accounting structure to one compatible with the County's chart of accounts.
