VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.
DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES - CHILD CARE SERVICES: Mr. Don Reopnick,
president of the Child Care Services, was present to discuss the captioned
service in the absence of Mr. Don Wall, Social Services Director, who is out
ofthe office due to illness. Information was mailed to the board members in advance
of the meeting pertaining to the request for an additional $13,200 to support the
child care center from January 1, 1985 through June 30, 1985. The county manager
said no budget amendment is required for moving funds from within the social services
budget. An additional $40,000 will be required to continue the program in the 1985-
86 budget.
Commissioner Mills questioned which would be more cost effective --operating the
service from within the county in another budget year or sending the children to
other counties.
MOTION from Commissioner Mills that the board look at this operation very
carefully during the remainder of this fiscal year and in the new budget year the
county manaqer/budget officer justify the existence of this program being operated
within the county.
VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.
DISCUSSION OF LANDFILL OPERATIONS: Mr. Wayne Deal, county manager, and Mr.
Donald Weatherman, landfill supervisor, were present to discuss the landfill opera-
tions with the board. Mr. Deal said some things needed to be done quickly at the
landfill. He recommended purchasing a new pan instead of a used one, buying the
new one on a lease -purchase arrangement. He said it could be done with the same
amount of funds that are in the budget at the present time. He also advised the
board that bids for a compactor have already been sent out by the staff. He was
asking permission from the board to proceed with plans on the lease -purchase
arrangement for the pan and bring the quotations received back to the board for
approval.
Mr. Deal also recommended that a roll -off site be established at the entrance
of the landfill for individuals to use in disposing of their household waste. This
would result in less traffic into the landfill.
In lieu of constructing a pole shed to be used for storing equipment, Mr. Deal
recommended that a metal and steel building be built. He said this could be done
for substantially the same amount of money as that of the pole shed, and in addition,
it can be moved to a new landfill site.
In summarizing, he recommended:
(1) Used pan to new pan on a lease -purchase plan. To bring back quotations to
the board.
(2) Build a metal building instead of a pole shed (bids will be required).
