Additional staff added at this time would help alleviate the workload ratio and reduce the number of overtime hours of the present workforce. Sheriff Pendergrass indicated that with the increase in homicides in the County, 2299 hours overtime have been worked since July 1, 1985. He presented a printout to the Board outlining the types of crimes that have taken place in the County and the number of man hours required. The three new positions would help decrease the number of overtime hours and give some flexibility for repaying compensatory time.

VOTE: UNANIMOUS. 11,_ 22111EIUMMARFILETALmagumon (A, complete copy of the report and recommendations on Joint Planning prepared by Alice Gordon and Alice Ingram is in the permanent agenda file in the Clerk's office) The Board reviewed the questions on page 3 of the report and had no comments. Chair Willboit questioned the term "infill" and noted that the concept of infill discussed by the Joint Planning Committee several years ago, involved the utilization of vacant land adjacent to existing development and that the idea of using it for high density development was not a prevalent theme at that time. Infill development should be at the same density as the existing surrounding development and characteristic of the area in which the infill is taking place. Referring to "operating principles" related to University Lake Watershed, Chair Willhoit indicated that the current Land Use Plan and Zoning Ordinance addresses the issue effectively at this time. He suggested using the phrase "transition areas" instead of "joint planning area" in reference to water/sewer extensions.
