ADOPTED
THIS 21TH DAY OF JUNE, 2007 |
|
County Manager Steen
requested the Board review the Section XXXV which
authorizes the Budget Officer to transfer appropriations within a
fund. Manager Steen
noted that Item A allows the Budget Officer to transfer amounts between
object of
expenditure within a department up to $5,000 and without a report being
requested. The
amount was increased to $5,000 (last year $1,000) which will reduce
budget amendments.
Vice Chairman Walker
stated he would prefer a monthly report explaining the
transfer.
The Board agreed to
change Item A to read as follows:
A. He may transfer amounts between
object-of-expenditure within a department up to $5,000 and a monthly report to
the Board of County Commissioners
County Manager Steen
also requested the Board approve an effective date for the
Solid Waste Fees increase that was adopted at the June 20th
meeting.
The Board agreed the
effective date for the increase in Solid Waste Fees –
August 1, 2007.
Clerk to the Board
Darlene Bullins noted that County would be advertising the fee
increase in order to inform the public.
Commissioner Lankford
noted that the public needed to know that the County had
received a fee increase from the C&D Contractor which was the
rationale for the increase to
the public.
Chairman Inman
entertained a motion to approve the Stokes County Budget
Ordinance for Fiscal Year 2007-08 as amended.
Commissioner Lankford
moved to approve the Stokes County Budget Ordinance for
Fiscal Year 2007-08 as amended.
Vice Chairman Walker seconded and the motion carried
(4-1) with Commissioner Carroll voting against the motion.
County Manager Bryan
Steen requested direction from the Board regarding the
job descriptions for the two Fire Marshal’s positions that were
reinstated to the budget.
The Board discussed
the current job duties of the two positions.
Commissioner Carroll
suggested possibly discussing the issue with the
Fire Commission.
Commissioner Lankford
noted the need to evaluate the need for the daytime support.
Commissioner Smith
also noted the need to evaluate the need for the daytime support
and review the compensatory time issue with these positions.
Chairman Inman reiterated the need to address
compensatory time with not only these
positions, but with every county employee.
County Manager Steen
noted that he had notified all department heads to
begin to assess the amount of compensatory time that their employees
had and were accruing.
Chairman Inman
expressed his appreciation to fellow Board members and county
staff for their hard work during the budget process.
Adjournment
There being no further business to come before
the Board, Chairman Inman
entertained a motion to adjourn the meeting.
Commissioner Smith moved to adjourn the
meeting. Vice Chairman Walker
seconded and the motion carried unanimously.
