After further discussion, it was decided that it would not be of too much benefit to have the
hourly rate since it is not known how many hours would be involved in the study. Mr. Deal thought
it was urgent to proceed with this study as soon as possible.
MOTION from Commissioner Murdock to go with the Camp Dresser McKee study, to be paid out of the
water and sewer funds, to be reimbursed with Senate Bill 02 monies at a later time. The study is to
cost from $6,000 to $9,000 and can be completed in approximately six to seven weeks for Phase I.
VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.
ADDITIONAL POSITION FOR RECREATION DEPARTMENT: This matter was before the board on October 20,
1987, at which time the board requested that the classification for the position be written and the
salary range and position classification be brought back to the board for final approval.
Mr. Deal reported that the position was at a salary $11,712, at Grade 57, Step 1A. The
hospitalization would be $289 for January through June 1988. There are enough funds in the retire-
ment line time to cover retirement for this six-month period. A transfer of $4,330 from part-time
salary to full-time salary will also be necessary.
MOTION from Commissioner Stewart to fill the full-time part-time position for the Athletic
Supervisor.
VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 1 (Ostwalt).
HARMONY EMS BASE: Mr. Deal discussed this matter with the board. He asked if the board wished
to proceed to establish a new base. It would be necessary to take the funds from the Capital
Reserve Fund. Mr. Deal said he believed something needed to be done at Harmony. Mr. Deal estimates
that a building would cost $30,000 based on an estimated $15/per sq. ft. building cost. In addition
to the building, a septic tank will be required and paving for parking. The estimate for the
building is based on a 40 x 30 building with two ambulance bases 40' in length and approximately 30'
wide.
Commissioner Ostwalt said he would like to see the board proceed with this. Chairman Hedrick
inquired if a perk test has been made of the soil.
The county presently owns some property on 901 S, toward Mocksville. The property is located
on both sides of the road. Mr. Deal said he would spend some time deciding on the best location and
would try to locate the building at a corner of the property.
Commissioner Crosswhite inquired about the offer from the Medical Center to allow the EMS
headquarters to locate there, but the feeling was that this offer had since been withdrawn.
MOTION from Commissioner Murdock to proceed with the things that are necessary to get this
building started, perk test, etc.
In discussing the motion, Chairman Hedrick said before the staff begins, he would like for the
board to be apprised of the proceedings.
VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.
PLAQUES TO BE PRESENTED TO RETIRING EMPLOYEES: It was brought to the attention of the board
that there were five county employees who retired during 1987. Alice Fortner, Clerk to the Board,
asked the board to set a policy of recognizing retiring employees each year. The board by consensus
agreed that it would be best to present the placques to all employees who had retired during the
current year at the Annual Christmas Luncheon for the Employees, and that this would be an on-going
event each year.
EXECUTIVE SESSION: MOTION from Chairman Hedrick to enter Executive Session for the purpose of
interviewing a county manager applicant.
VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.
The board continued the executive session until 12:00 Noon, at which time they adjourned the
meeting to have lunch with the county manager candidate at the City Club. The board members
returned at 1:00 p.m. and adjourned the meeting until Monday, December 7, 1987, 10:00 a.m., County
Annex Conference Room. Motions to adjourn from executive session and to adjourn the regular meeting
were made by Chairman Hedrick and unanimously approved by the board.
