UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Request from the Sheriff for Permission to Implement A Separate Employee
Performance Appraisal System: Commissioner Norman mentioned that in the past, the
board members had discussed Sheriff Redmond's request to implement his own merit
program, but a decision had never been made.
Commissioner Johnson said the nature of law enforcement work and the amount of
training and expertise needed to operate law enforcement equipment were somewhat
different from the other county departments. He said also, the sheriffs department was
supervised by an elected official who was responsible to the voters. Johnson said he was
in favor of allowing the sheriff to have a pilot program for one year, even though the
county manager had concerns. He said other elected officials might also desire to
implement a similar program, and he would be sympathetic to their requests. Johnson
said the sheriffs merit program should be monitored carefully, and the board needed to be
made aware of any administrative problems.
Commissioner Norman said a final determination needed to be made because the
sheriffs department had not been submitting employee job performance reviews since the
start of this budget year.
Commissioner Williams asked if the other elected official (Register of Deeds) had
been submitting performance reviews, and he was told yes. Mr. Williams said he agreed
with the pilot program concept, and the board members should monitor it carefully.
Conundsioner Robertson said the term "pilot program" implied that a decision
would be made later on. He asked what the criteria for success would be, or what would
be the bar a year from now. Robertson asked if it would be retention or something else.
