Discussion re- Neil Hudson, Director of Public Works, was present to garding Solid discuss this. He stated that the Solid Waste Advisory Waste Opera- Committee for some time has wanted to retain a consult- tions Study ant to analize the Solid Waste landfill operations. They requested proposals from various consultants and recieved three. The first was at a cost of $40,000. There were two others in the $10,000 range from Wright Engineering and Century West Engineering. At this point there is a question of where to obtain the funding for this study, as the Solid Waste budget cannot afford it. Mr. Hudson said that it is his belief that they will only be able to produce a 5-10% efficiency rate, which would be the same cost as the study, so they would really not come out ahead. He recommended that they have an in-house engineer spend a day at Knott landfill and a day at Negus landfill and have him analize the operation for efficiency. Mr. Isham asked if the study would address the landfill fee structure at all. Mr. Hudson stated that this would be addressed in the study as well. Commissioner Paulson stated that he did not feel that having an in-house person do the study would be as effective, because that person may not be totally unbiased. Chairman Shepard suggested that this proposal be sent back to the Solid Waste Advisory Committee with the request that they propose possible funding sources for the Board to consider. It was the concensus of the Board to do so. Orders in the MOTION: PAULSON moved to approve the Orders. matter of Re- YOUNG: Second. fund of Taxes VOTE: SHEPARD: AYE. PAULSON: AYE. YOUNG: AYE. AUGUST 24, 1982 MINUTES: PAGE 2 VOL .1.0 4'.1-CE Discussion re- Oscar Bratton, County Assessor, was present to discuss garding Re- this and stated that he had previously submitted mat- classification erial relating to this to the Board for review. He ex- plained that Vivian McCloskey, who is now requesting reclassification, was hired 11 years ago, then in 1976 she became a senior office assistant. Then in 1979 she became an appraiser trainee. Now she would like to transfer out of the appraiser trainee position into an Office Assistant III position. Mr. Bratton suggested also that she could go into an Office Assistant II position (which is currently unfilled and in the budget) at the top of the salary range and then later reclassify that to an Office Assistant III position. He noted that this is where she would have been if she had stayed in the Senior Office Assistant position. He stated that because she had acquired training, she is a more val- uable employee. Joan Rotsolk, Assessor's office, stated that there is a job description for their department for an Appraiser Technician, which closely describes the work currently being performed by Ms. McCloskey. Be- cause they have not had that position filled in some time, they had forgotten that that described job ex- isted. There was some further discussion in regard to reclassifying her to the Appraiser Technician position and at what salary range. It was suggested that she be placed in this position and be frozen at the top salary range. Chairman Shepard stated that he did not feel that the matter of salary was a matter that the Board should address, that it should be the decision of the department head. There was some further general discus- sion. MOTION: YOUNG moved that in the matter of Vivian Mc- Closkey that she be reclassified as Appraiser Technician at the top of the range with the range frozen at that point. SHEPARD: Second. Commissioner Paulson stated even when well-qualified people are hired for a position, they do not come in at the top, but in the middle of the range. VOTE: SHEPARD: AYE. PAULSON: NO. YOUNG: AYE.
