Human Resources-Brenda Bartholomew <br /> • Would like for HR to become a strategic player in the game —that we are at the table when <br /> decisions are being made that are related to personnel and human resources' decisions. <br /> • Measure HR impact on your Department, consider the rules and the exception to the rules <br /> when problems arise. <br /> • Learn all we can about Orange County strategies and core values to inform recruitment, <br /> retention and succession planning. Look to our employees as best candidates for promotions. <br /> • Prioritize looking at salary plans, compensation, and performance reviews. <br /> • We want to build trust among employees <br /> • When asked how the county is doing on diversity in the workplace the response was that <br /> Departments are different but we need to enhance our competitive process and eliminate <br /> barriers to diversity. <br /> North Carolina State Cooperative Extension-Carl Maytac <br /> • They are working on updating their long range plan and developing an agenda for an <br /> Agriculture Summit. <br /> • They still have vacancies that need to be filled —the Director wants to fill the current Extension <br /> Agent position then wants an additional position. <br /> • When asked if they have any focus on getting quality/nutritious food to those in need, the <br /> response was they are working on a food distribution network. Community gardens are being <br /> developed short term and they are educating people on how to do food access and nutrition <br /> work. <br /> Library-Lucinda Munger <br /> We review our strategic plan, goals, and objectives monthly. <br /> • Challenges: <br /> o Biggest challenge is outreach into the community and within county government to <br /> understand how to do research on topics. There's a need to break the stereotype and <br /> change the image of the library, clarifying for people what a library is and is not. The library <br /> is an information center with skilled researchers who can find information that is needed. <br /> o Would like more of an open dialogue with County colleagues including the Commissioners <br /> so they can make better use of the library resources. <br /> Department of Environmental, Agricultural, Parks and Recreation (DEAPR)-Dave Stancil <br /> • Challenges: <br /> o Coordinating with the schools to use their facilities like their gymnasium or school fields for <br /> the public when those facilities aren't in use by the school. <br /> o Community Centers -What are they?What level of service can we anticipate from them? <br /> o In the area of Agriculture and local foods— Can we create local markets and get food stuffs <br /> to institutions and other local consumers in a way that makes sense. <br /> o How do we work with nonprofit providers and sports complex on recreation <br /> o Joint parks and capital funding for parks with neighboring communities. <br /> o Climate Change and Environmental Issues <br /> Child Support-Janet Sparks <br /> • Challenges <br />
