10 A motion was made by Commissioner Jacobs, seconded by Commissioner Rich to re- capture the notion of funding outside agencies, and to add this to a work session in the fall for further discussion. VOTE: UNANIMOUS Commissioner Dorosin proposed a break in order to tally funds used thus far and determine remaining funds. Meeting resumed at 9:29 p.m. Paul Laughton said there is $147,338 remaining to be allocated. Chair McKee said another white sheet was just put at the Commissioners' places, which is four items that were inadvertently left out of blue folder for discussion tonight. Commissioner Dorosin asked if changes in the outside agencies could be reviewed. Paul Laughton said the total amount was $52,662, which included the Food Council. Bonnie Hammersley said all changes would be updated and brought to the June 21st meeting. Commissioner Dorosin asked if the total added to the Manager recommended $1,115,441 is $52,662. Paul Laughton said yes, and $147,000 remains from $200,000 to be allocated this evening. Chair McKee said the Board still needs to consider the four items on the white page just received and the items on the second portion of page 410. Bonnie Hammersley referred to the Piedmont Food and Agricultural Processing Center (PFAPC) amendment, and said that is a County Manager amendment, and the $17,000 is already considered. She said the remaining three items on the white sheet are to be considered. Paul Laughton said the total of those three items is $68,891. Chair McKee referred to the Compton Pond amendment ($1,800), and said he and Commissioner Price met with residents from that area. He said staff was asked to talk with the State to evaluate the pond and treat the whole pond, since it feeds into Lake Orange, which is being treated. He said staff spoke with the State, and there are some contingency funds, but the treatment would use that entire contingency, so he proposed the $1,800 amendment to fund this treatment. Commissioner Rich said she is comfortable with all three proposed items, and asked if the remaining balance could be given, if these three items were to be funded. Paul Laughton said $78,447 would remain. A motion was made by Commissioner Rich, seconded by Commissioner Burroughs to approve items on white sheet (Operating Budget Amendments), and use the remaining funds for the discussion on section 2 of the outside agencies. Commissioner Dorosin asked if there could be discussion about the proposed additional deputy recommended by Chair McKee. Chair McKee explained that several years ago the Board addressed Emergency Services needs through a task force, but did not include any public safety staffing issues. He said he felt one additional deputy in the Sheriff's department would provide additional coverage in the rural areas.
