Attachment 1 <br />COUNTY OF ORANGE <br />ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE CONTROL BOARD <br />601 VALLEY FORGE ROAD <br />HILLSBOROUGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27278 <br />919-732-3432 <br />FAX: 919-732-5829 <br />ocabc@mindspring.com <br />orange.ncabc.com <br /> Board Members <br />GREGG JARVIES, Chair JANE COUSINS <br />KEITH BAGBY, Vice chair MIKE LASSITER <br />TONY DUBOIS, General Manager JAMEZETTA BEDFORD <br /> <br /> <br />TO: Chairman Mark Dorosin <br /> Orange County Board of Commissioners <br /> <br />FROM: Chairman Gregg Jarvies <br /> Orange County ABC Board <br /> <br />DATE: May 15, 2018 <br /> <br />RE: ABC General Manager Salary <br /> <br /> <br />The purpose of this memorandum is to seek approval for an exemption to salary limits for the Orange <br />County ABC board's general manager. <br /> <br />North Carolina General Statute 18B-700(g1) stipulates that the salary of the general manager of a local <br />ABC board "shall not exceed the salary authorized by the General Assembly for the clerk of superior court <br />of the county in which the appointing authority was originally incorporated unless such compensation is <br />otherwise approved by the appointing authority." The FY 2017/18 authorized salary for the Orange <br />County Clerk of Superior Court is $99,834. <br /> <br />Our general manager's current salary of $98,834 is one percent below the maximum level allowed by <br />General Statute 18B-700(g1). The ABC board of directors will not make a final determination of the <br />general manager's FY 2017/18 performance rating and accompanying pay increase - if any - until our <br />business meeting on June 21. Should the general manager's performance in this current fiscal year be rated <br />average or above he will be eligible for a salary increase of at least three percent but no more than five <br />percent. Granting a pay increase exceeding one percent of the general manager's current salary would <br />require the BOCC to approve an exemption to the statutory limit. <br /> <br />After your June 19 meeting the BOCC will not meet again until September 4. Should the ABC board <br />determine that the general manager has earned a pay increase of more than one percent we would like to <br />grant the manager the salary increase and make it effective July 1. <br /> <br />To relieve any uncertainty about whether the ABC general manager will receive a pay increase for his <br />performance this past year and to mitigate any unnecessary delay in receiving what we determine to be a <br />fair and deserved salary, I respectfully request that the Board of Commissioners authorize the ABC board <br />of directors to exceed the statutory limit imposed by GS 18B-700(g1) by no more than four percent. <br /> <br />Thank you for your consideration of this request. <br /> <br />3
