,~ <br />Commissioner Nelson concurred with previous statements and he would support <br />putting this on the next agenda. He pointed out that the County faces a deadline to find a site <br />for the transfer station. <br />Chair Carey said to add this issue to the agenda for November 15th. The Board will <br />have to look at a proposed process and site search criteria. <br />Commissioner Gordon supports adding this to the next agenda and to include some <br />specific recommendations concerning the process for the new site search, or at least a way to <br />start the process. <br />Chair Carey invited any of the Board members to convey ideas on this process to the <br />Manager. He said that he does not want to give the perception that the County <br />Commissioners are misleading the residents. He wants to address the implications of <br />restarting the process for the outcome of the task force's work and process. <br />PUBLIC CHARGE <br />The Chair dispensed with the reading of the public charge. <br />2.

At the end of her <br />term, which she just completed, she decided to bring each of County Commissioners a shawl. <br />She thanked the County Commissioners for the opportunity to represent the County in this <br />organization. <br />Chair Carey thanked Annette Moore for her work in this organization. <br />b.
