Proctor said the department would be agreeable to assessing this; however, in the beginning the employees needed to be full-time whether they were temporary or permanent. Johnson also asked if three new positions, rather than four, would suffice. Proctor said the department had envisioned that one would work in Mooresville along with the other staff person, and the other three people would be based in Statesville. REGISTER OF DEED'S REQUEST FOR ONE CLERK III POSITION: Mrs. Brenda Bell said she was making this request due to the following three items: (1) the public records law (GS 132-1) that became effective October 1, 1995. (Numerous requests have been received.) (2) medical information has to be deleted from birth certificates, etc. (The office currently has 78 volumes of birth certificates.) and (3) the work involved in real estate, marriage licenses, etc. is increasing. (State law no longer requires a physical for marriage so fewer people are going out of state.) Bell mentioned that she tries to run a "customer friendly" office. one that gives citizens (customers) top priority over desk work. This, however, can necessitate that staff work overtime. Commissioner Madison asked if the request stemmed primarily from changes in state laws. Bell said the new law was part of it, but that the county's population was increasing also. Bell mentioned that her revenues "far exceeded" expenditures. One item of concern, however, is that under the new law, the citizen is only required to pay for the cost of the paper involved when making copies. A charge for the personnel time involved cannot be assessed. Commissioner Boone asked if the employees working overtime were being paid or taking the time off. Bell replied that they mostly take the time off; however, this is difficult since most of her employees have already accumulated much vacation. The work doesn't get done when staff is out for comp time. Boone mentioned that in the private sector that employees were paid overtime and that they (employees) recognize it as a part of their work. Bell said that her department had been paid overtime in the past; however, employees reach a point to where they can't work overtime and then put in their regular eight hours. Commissioner Madison commented that he visited this office often in his course of work, and from what he had seen the office was very efficient and busy. REQUEST OF HEALTH DEFT. FOR MODIFICATION TO ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTR DIVISION'S USER FEE STRUCTURE: Dr. Michael Heinen, of the health board, primarily explained some new proposals. He was accompanied by Michael Sexton and Dr. Ronald Milam, also health board members. The Board of Health on September 14, 1995, approved two user fee proposals for the Environmental Health Division. This was done in an effort to seek a method to make the sewage disposal program loot self-supporting through fees.
