The Board of County Commissioners would then initiate <br />contact with the candidates. <br />Chair Foushee suggested interviewing three candidates at a time; and if the first batch <br />does not work out, then as for three more candidates. <br />Commissioner Gordon said if the NCACC does not work out, then the county could <br />always hire a private firm. <br />Commissioner Yuhasz asked about talking with Mercer about fees, etc. <br />Chair Foushee suggested that the Board may want to piggyback on the current contract <br />with amendments. <br />COUNTY ATTORNEY UPDATE <br />Chair Foushee said she spoke with Mr. Roberts today and we have a signed MOA and <br />they are able to move forward with the appointment on April 7th or 21St <br />Mr. Roberts indicated he can start on April 23`d <br />The Board of County Commissioners will host an in house reception for Mr. Roberts, and <br />also Geof Gledhill who is retiring, on April 14th at the Link Government Services Center <br />from 6-7pm. <br />BROADBAND UPDATE <br />
