ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS
SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT - REQUEST FOR RECLASSIFICATION: Sheriff Clyde Lloyd and Cecil Cook of
the Sheriff's Department came to discuss the request for two reclassifications in that department.
The request is to add a Chief Deputy class to the pay pian at a Grade 77, $31,812 - $43,452, and to
add a Court/Jail Supervisor class to the pay plan at Grade 70, $23,280 - $31,812. Sheriff Clyde
Lloyd is proposing to return to the Chief Deputy style of management that he changed when he first
came into office by having two Captains with designated departments reporting to each Captain. The
second request for the Court/Jail Supervisor is requested because of additional responsibility for
the courts, according to Sheriff Lloyd.
The county commissioners discussed the reclassifications again with the Sheriff. Ouestions
were asked about the structure of the department in the past. Mr. Mashburn said the cost on an
annual basis is approximately $3,000.
MOTION from Commissioner Frank Mitchell to deny the request for reclassification of these two
positions.
VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.
SOCIAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT - REQUEST FOR EDUCATIONAL LEAVE FOR YVETTE SMITH: This request was
discussed at the briefing as well. The request is for Mrs. Smith to have one day a week off with

Master's Degree at UNC, Chapel Hill. In addition to this request, she also has to do an 80 -day
internship at an agency other than Social Services during the Summer of 1992. She is planning to do
this work at Tri -County Mental Health. Mrs. Smith proposes to use forty vacation days for her
internship and is asking the County to grant her educational leave with pay for the other forty
days, which would be eight full weeks. Mrs. Smith says she plans to remain on the staff at Social
