- - <br /> 24 <br /> 1 Donna Baker suggested that a consultant look over the forms She suggested that the <br /> 2 current forms could be used now because of time constraints. <br /> 3 Commissioner Gordon suggested that the board adopt the forms for this evaluation, with <br /> 4 the changes that will-conform the evaluation forms to the process. <br /> 5 Commissioner Gordon made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Rich, that the <br /> 6 evaluation process 1) Conforms to the adopted procedures,2) has a standardized rating scale, <br /> 7 and 3) re-visits the instruments subsequent to the review of the attorney and the clerk. <br /> 8 <br /> 9 VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> 10 <br /> 11 Donna Baker asked about supportive documentation, such as information from prior <br /> 12 evaluations. She asked if this is acceptable to attach to the evaluation. <br /> 13 Commissioner Gordon said yes. <br /> 14 <br /> 15 Commissioner Rich made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Price to appropriate up <br /> 16 to $3,300 to work with a consultant in developing a performance evaluation process for the <br /> 17 manager. <br /> 18 <br /> 19 Commissioner Dorosin said when this was discussed earlier he expressed his opinion <br /> 20 that he does not believe an outside consultant is needed to evaluate the manager; he would <br /> 21 advocate an internal process. <br /> 22 Commissioner McKee asked what the Board is hoping to achieve with the consultant. <br /> 23 Commissioner Rich said it seems there is no consistent way to review the manager and <br /> 24 when a consultant was brought in to discuss this, she felt there needed to be more consistency. <br /> 25 She said that the manager is happy to set this up. Commissioner Rich has worked with the <br /> 26 consultant in question and she is experienced in this area. <br /> 27 Commissioner McKee said he is conflicted because this is a lot of money to be spent, <br /> 28 but he has participated in two of these evaluations and he did not feel it was fair to the manager <br /> 29 or the county. He said he will support this, although he has some reservations. <br /> 30 Commissioner Price said the total amount may not need to be spent. She said that with <br /> 31 nothing currently in |aCe, the consultant can be very helpful and in the future there will be <br /> 32 something standardized in place. <br /> 33 Commissioner Pelissier said she does not have a problem with steps one and two, <br /> 34 which involve coming up with the process, but she does have a problem with spending money <br /> 35 to compile the ratings. She said she does not want someone else to be part of that process. <br /> 36 <br /> 37 VOTE:Ayes, 5 (Chair Jacobs, Commissioner Gordon, Commissioner McKee, Commissioner <br /> 38 Price and Commissioner Rich); Nays, 2 (Commissioner Dorosin and Commissioner Pelissier) <br /> 39 <br /> 40 MOTION PASSED <br /> 41 <br /> 42 8.
