Chair Jacobs: Unless there are questions, I need a motion to refer the Class A SUP <br /> application to the Planning Board for review and comment with a request that a <br /> recommendation be submitted no later than August 14, 2008. <br /> Geof Gledhill: Mr. Chair, let me suggest that the action you take is to adjourn the public <br /> hearing to the meeting you want to consider this again to receive the Planning Board's <br /> recommendation and any additional written evidence that's submitted to the Planning Board in <br /> the meantime. <br /> A motion was made by Commissioner Gordon, seconded by Commissioner Nelson to adjourn <br /> the public hearing to August 19, 2008 to receive the Planning Board's recommendation, along <br /> with any additional written evidence submitted to the Planning Board. <br /> VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> 6. ����U���genda <br /> a. Approval of Fiscal Year 2008-09 Budget Ordinance, Capital Pmoiemt <br /> Ordinances, and Grant PmNiectKDrdinances <br /> The Board considered adopting the County's budget ordinance School and County <br /> capital p ject ordinances, and County grant p ject ordinances for fiscal year 2008-09 and <br /> authorizing a Parks Conservation Technician II position, effective October 1, 2008, at no <br /> additional cost to the FY 2008-09 approved General Fund Budget. <br /> Laura Blackmon made reference to the abstract, which outlined the decisions of the <br /> Board at the last w ork session. <br /> Chair Jacobs pointed out that the County Commissioners were handed a written <br /> explanation of two shifts in the funding in the Sheriff's Department and the Health Department <br /> that would not incur additional costs. This includes hiring of two new deputies in the Sheriff's <br /> Department and a continuation of the Volunteer Coordinator position in the Health Department. <br /> Commissioner Gordon asked that an explanation be provided for these two changes. <br /> Donna Coffey said that, according to the numbers, there would be no additional cost for <br /> the two Sheriff's Deputies. The cost of the Volunteer Coordinator would be $3,971. Instead of <br /> being an Administrative Assistant |, it would be a Volunteer Coordinator. This is a trade. The <br /> Sheriff's proposal is to trade vehicles for two deputy positions at no additional costs to the <br /> County. <br /> Commissioner Foushee said that those positions would include benefit costs associated <br /> with the staff. <br /> Commissioner Gordon did not understand how the amounts could be exactly the same. <br /> Donna Coffey said that the revenues associated with the Administrative Assistant I position <br /> would also transfer to the Volunteer Coordinator. That is how there is a wash of County funds. <br /> Health Director Rosemary Summers said that there is some carry forward money that <br /> has not been expended that will be continuation funding from the State in future years. This <br /> funding will be used to make up the difference in the Volunteer Coordinator's salary. In future <br /> years, there will be a permanent allocation from the State. She said that the revenue <br /> projections ar8 $15.00OfortheAd0iniot[ativeAsoiot8DtmDd $21.00OiOK8edicaidod[ninistrmtivo <br /> draw downs, and the additional $10,000 carried forward from this year. There is also $10'000 <br /> from CERT, but that is already assigned to the Volunteer Coordinator position. <br /> Commissioner Gordon said that she would like a proposal for this and the numbers. <br /> Commissioner Carey suggested that the Board a pprove this change in position and ask <br /> the Health Director to bring the numbers back in August, since it will not increase the spending <br /> for personnel. <br /> The Board agreed. <br />
