GARDINER, WILLIAM (SEXTON RESPONSIBILITIES FOR COUNTY CEMETERIES)

As outlined in his memorandum dated August 26, 1981, the County

Administrator recommended that sexton responsibilities for county

cemeteries be placed within the Department of Human Services. Due

to the fact that organizational changes have eliminated the need

for supplemental duties at Animal Control and County cemeteries,

previously carried out by William Gardiner, he recommended that Mr.

Gardiner be notified of the intent of the Board of County

Commissioners to terminate the Supplemental Employment Contract with

him.

Mr. Fletcher moved that the County Administrator be instructed to

contact Mr. Gardiner, notify him that the Board intends to terminate

the contract in accordance with the terms thereof, and authorize

the Chairman to sign the letter dated August 26, 1981 (to Mr.

Gardiner advising him of the Board's intent). Motion was seconded

by Mr. Vickers and carried unanimously.

= Licensing and Permitting and Code Enforcement functions be

separated into a Department of Licensing and Inspections

and Al Cogan be redesignated as the Director of Licensing

and Inspections.

= Planning functions of the current Planning and Development

Department remain as the Planning Department.

= An active recruiting effort be initiated to find a

qualified, competent planning administrator to operate the

Planning Department and that Kathy Snell, Director of Human

Services, be designated Acting Director.

concurs with the restructuring of the Department.

COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR (D. B. COLLIER)/COUNTY ATTORNEY (MANN & FAY)

Mr.Fletcher expressed his opinion that it would be in the best

interests of the County to terminate the services of D. B. Collier,

County Administrator, effective February 1982, giving him an

opportunity to relocate and giving the County an opportunity to

review applicants. He reported that he also felt that the

contracted services with the firm of Mann and Fay should be

terminated.

Discussion was held regarding having a Job Performance Evaluation

form completed for Mr. Collier and discussing those forms at a work

session prior to requesting action by the Board.

Mr. Collier commented that no evaluation of his performance has ever

been completed by citizens of the community or by all Commissioners.

Since the Board and staff are intensely involved in preparing the

1981-82 budget, he suggested the evaluation of his performance and

the role of County Administrator be deferred until such time as the

budget process is completed. There were no objections to deferring

action until early October.
