ANIMAL SERVICES <br /> <br />1601 Eubanks Road http://orangecountync.gov/departments/animalservices phone: (919) 942-7387 <br />Chapel Hill, NC 27516 fax: (919) 918-2393 <br /> <br />February 26, 2018 <br /> <br />To: Orange County Board of County Commissioners <br /> <br />From: Bob Marotto, Animal Services Director <br /> <br />Re: Reappointments for the Animal Services Hearing Panel Pool <br /> <br />The terms for a number of members of the Animal Services Hearing Panel Pool (Hearing Panel <br />Pool) expire on March 31, 2018. Fortunately, three of these members are available for and <br />interested in reappointment. They are: <br /> <br />1) George Goldbeck: Mr. Goldbeck was recently appointed to the Hearing Panel Pool and <br />he has shown a strong interest in serving in this capacity. <br /> <br />2) Beth Grooms, DDS, PA: Dr. Grooms is one of the three members of the Animal Services <br />Advisory Board (ASAB) serving on the Hearing Panel Pool, and as such, she chairs <br />hearing panels. The ASAB unanimously and enthusiastically recommends her <br />reappointment to the Hearing Panel Pool. <br /> <br />3) Brenda Baldwin Scott: Ms. Scott has been an active member of the Hearing Panel Pool, <br />serving often as a member of hearing panels since she was appointed. <br /> <br />Two other eligible members have declined reappointment. Bartholomew Barker indicated that <br />he hopes to become a member of the Arts Commission in the near future and Marcia Adams <br />indicated that her work schedule has changed. <br /> <br />I am currently working with the Clerk’s office to confirm the continued interest of applicants in <br />serving on the Hearing Panel Pool. We intend to bring forward to the Board of County <br />Commissioners interested applicants eligible for the four vacant positions sometime in April. <br /> <br />Cc: Donna Baker, Clerk, Board of County Commissioners <br /> Thom Freeman, Assistant to the Clerk, Board of County Commissioners <br /> Maureane Hoffman, M.D., PhD., Chair, Animal Services Advisory Board <br /> Molly Mullin, Ph.D., Vice-Chair, Animal Services Advisory Board <br /> Andi Morgan, Assistant Animal Services Director <br />7
