<br />1 We will keep the Commission closely informed and involved in decisions concerning the <br />2 search process at all times. We will prepare and send to the Commission periodic reports. <br />3 These reports will contain a progress report on the recruitment as well as specific steps to <br />4 be taken to meet the Commission's deadlines. <br />5 <br />6 <br />7 Commissioner Hemminger asked why he would want to interview them individually and <br />8 Mr. Robertson said there is more room for individual opinion on a one-on-one basis. <br />9 <br />10 Commissioner Hemminger said that she had heard that the last time that the Board of <br />11 County Commissioners had such varied opinions that she would like to hear everyone's <br />12 opinion. Mr. Robertson said which ever way the Board feels most comfortable doing this <br />13 he will do it that way but there is more time with an individual interview. <br />14 <br />15 Commissioner Gordon said she thought it worked well having individual interviews. <br />16 <br />17 Commissioner Pelissier asked past commissioners if they found it useful to have <br />18 individual interviews and they said yes. <br />19 <br />20 Mr. Robertson said following Board approval of the position profile, Mercer will advertise <br />21 this position nationally. <br />22 <br />23 Mr. Robertson said he would like to send each candidate a list of issues facing the <br />24 manager and the Board of County Commissioners can get an idea of the writing <br />25 style and thinking of the candidates. <br />26 <br />27 Chair Foushee said with respect to recruiting nationally and using other resources, for her, <br />28 she would like to state now, she would not like to see a number of candidates coming <br />29 heavily from one region. <br />30 <br />31 Commissioner Gordon agreed except for N.C. Chair Foushee said that she does not <br />32 include our state, just other regions. <br />33 <br />34 Commissioner Jacobs said he does not think the Board wants the same candidates as <br />35 they had before and he thinks the Board would like candidates with N.C experience. <br />36 <br />37 Commissioner Nelson 7:17:56 PM said there may be people in the last pool of candidates <br />38 for county manager that may not have had enough experience before but now 3 years <br />39 later, may be viable candidates. <br />40 <br />41 Mr. Robertson said Mercer would take from the larger pool of candidates, and winnow <br />42 down to 8-12 candidates and then he would put a booklet together on each candidate; <br />43 then the Board could narrow their choices down to 3-5 candidates that the Board could <br />44 interview. <br />45 <br />46 He said from that group, they would ask them to sign a waiver and Mercer would write in <br />47 the waiver, similar to the county attorney search, that the Board of County Commissioners <br />48 has the freedom to contact whoever they want in the candidate's background. From <br />49 there, Mercer would conduct background investigations. <br />O = Conunission input requested <br />
