UNSPENT CAPITAL OUTLAY FROM EMS TO ANIMAL CONTROL FOR A COMPUTER
PROJECT): Al Upton, Director of safety and Emergency Services,
explained that due to some past computer networking problems the
Animal Control office had a large backlog of administrative work.
There is approximately three months of a backlog of files.
Recently, an independent computer company from Kernersville, N.C.,
evaluated the computer needs of animal control and gave a quote of
$9,499. Upton mentioned the animal control office already had
$2,386 earmarked for computer requirements. Using this money, plus
a transfer of funding from the EMS Department ($7,113) would enable
animal control to begin work on the backlog. The EMS transfer of
funding (line item 10-0535-5800.12) would be from the department
deciding to purchase a Ford E-350 ambulance instead of another
Freightliner that was budgeted for 96-97. Upton suggested this
idea so that the computer equipment problem could be eliminated as
soon as possible.
ADJOURNMENT: Chairman Haire adjourned the meeting at 6:50
p.m., for a break prior to the 7:00 p.m. meeting.
