31j <br /> November 29,1983 -9- County Manager <br /> 2. Must eve a basic understanding of "cook book" engineering in <br /> orderlto review and understand plans, designs and the concepts <br /> behind them. <br /> • <br /> 3. Must be able to visualize a construction site from drawings <br /> and understand the shape and topography of the site from the <br /> beginning when undisturbed through the construction to finished <br /> site. <br /> 4. Must be able to work with a wide variety of people including job <br /> site N6rkers to engineers and architects in order to explain and <br /> describe the purpose, requirements, design and construction of <br /> erosion control measures. <br /> 5. Must be able to learn on the job and take initiative and assume <br /> responsibility for decisions. <br /> Space Requirements - With the addition of a new staff member, the <br /> Department would be hard pressed to find space for this person. The <br /> installation of word processing required the shifting of personnel to <br /> accommodate the equipment for that purpose. To handle the additional <br /> member, space could be provided if sufficient funding were provided to <br /> purchase modular desk units. These take up less space and can be arranged <br /> to utilize existing space more efficiently. <br /> Another alternative would be to relocate the Personnel Department and <br /> assign the first floor of the Courthouse (excluding courtrdoms) to the <br /> Planning Department. <br /> Another alteinative would be to allow the use of the hallway dividing the <br /> Department for a receptionist-clerical area. Sufficient funding would <br /> have to be provided, however, to allow the adaptation of that space for <br /> such a use. <br /> Given the amound of building activity projected with University Lake watershed, <br /> the current staff work load, the time required to effectively administer a <br /> higher level!inspection program, and the probability of additional watershed <br /> areas being brought under similar provibion, I feel+the addition of another <br /> Erosion Control Inspector is justified. Should You require additional'inforMati n <br /> or clarification, let me know. <br /> Marvin Collins, Planning Director <br /> CC: Warren Faircloth, Erosion Control Officer <br />
