11 <br /> 1 Commissioner Jacobs asked if there is any update regarding Orange Well Net. <br /> 2 David Stancil said Well Net is the County's well observation program and he said the <br /> 3 County is monitoring about 12 wells. He said information is typically presented to the Board in <br /> 4 October. He said it may be 15 years before the data received from this program is of use. He <br /> 5 said updates can be provided to the Board more frequently. <br /> 6 Commissioner Jacobs said why does the County have this position if the data cannot be <br /> 7 applied for years to come. <br /> 8 Commissioner Price expressed concern regarding the increase in usage fees for <br /> 9 Community Centers. She said many residents tell her that the current fees are prohibitive for <br /> 10 their budgets so higher fees would be even more unattainable. <br /> 11 David Stancil said this fee change is a change in language only and the rates were <br /> 12 already in place. He said internal analysis has been done with other governmental entities and <br /> 13 Orange County costs are right in line. He said the facilities can be greatly used without being <br /> 14 reserved. He said when one wants exclusive rights to use a facility then the applicable fee <br /> 15 would apply. <br /> 16 Commissioner Dorosin suggested that the Board have further discussion regarding the <br /> 17 Community Center Coordinator proposed position. He said the Rogers Road Community <br /> 18 Center (RRCC) is staffing their own center and running programs successfully. He said the <br /> 19 RRCC is providing services that Orange County would otherwise provide. <br /> 20 Commissioner Jacobs said that the RRCC is an anomalous situation and is an <br /> 21 asymmetrical comparison to the other community centers. He said the Rogers Road residents <br /> 22 wanted to run the Center and agreed to pay for it. He said if Orange County was going to pay <br /> 23 for it then Orange County would run it as it does their other centers. He is not sure how both <br /> 24 can be done simultaneously. <br /> 25 Commissioner Dorosin said the current model needs to be tweaked. <br /> 26 Commissioner Rich said an update review was not built into the interlocal agreement <br /> 27 with the Rogers Road Community Center but a discussion is needed to gather feedback on how <br /> 28 the Center is doing. <br /> 29 Bonnie Hammersley added that the recommended budget does include the Community <br /> 30 Center Coordinator, who will be a liaison between all the Community Centers and the Board, <br /> 31 providing updates and being a point of contact. <br /> 32 <br /> 33 • Human Resources, Pg. 312 (including Non-Departmental Items, Pg. 328) <br /> 34 <br /> 35 Christal Sandifer reviewed the following information: <br /> 36 The FY15-16 Manager's Recommended Budget includes: <br /> 37 • New Position Recommended: Assistant Human Resources Director (1.0) FTE, effective <br /> 38 July 1, 2015 ($84,832). The new position will develop a compensation system beginning <br /> 39 in FY15-16 that is sustainable, affordable and equitable and focuses on identified and <br /> 40 prioritized needs. <br /> 41 • Operations Increase: ($25,000) recommended for analytic tools for the appropriate <br /> 42 modeling of compensation review associated with the recommended position above. <br /> 43 Commissioner Dorosin asked if there are specific people who must submit to drug <br /> 44 screens. <br /> 45 Christal Sandifer said only those in safety sensitive positions complete screenings. <br /> 46 <br /> 47 Board of County Commissioners, Pg. 78 <br /> 48 <br /> 49 Darrell Butts reviewed the following information: <br /> 50 The FY15-16 Manager Recommended Budget includes <br />
