[Music]

14
00:01:27,219 --> 00:01:38,090
so the topic of tonight's meeting is the
position of county administrator or lack

15
00:01:34,939 --> 00:01:49,549
thereof or what the future may bring for
it I guess essentially is gonna be a

16
00:01:42,469 --> 00:01:54,319
brainstorming such session I guess we
have a few options and probably some I

17
00:01:51,590 --> 00:02:00,709
don't know about I know in the past
there's been full-time chair people past

18
00:01:57,409 --> 00:02:07,610
there's been administrators a few other
things as well as far as how we would

19
00:02:04,969 --> 00:02:13,910
like to proceed in the future beyond the
first of the year I think is mostly what

20
00:02:10,579 --> 00:02:17,770
we're gonna be focused on I believe we
have the rest of the remainder of this

21
00:02:17,569 --> 00:02:20,860
year
[Music]

22
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:34,010
handled we have somebody kind of filling
in in the day-to-day I'm gonna be

23
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:39,320
working on the budget with Wynn hmm
and of course you're welcome to object

24
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:48,200
to my opinion on that but I'll open this
up to the legislators anybody that has

25
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:55,610
anything to say to it mr. Bennett yeah I
think it's time that we probably taken

26
00:02:51,230 --> 00:02:58,700
move an interim and appointed interim
and have somebody's the canactually take

27
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:03,050
and make some decisions and everything
and act as an administrator or as the

28
00:03:01,580 --> 00:03:08,420
head of the government right now for us
I think that would be a good move as

29
00:03:06,230 --> 00:03:14,240
we're going forward I know it's only
interim is temporary but young we need

30
00:03:12,230 --> 00:03:18,080
somebody that Department has you can go
to get a definite answer from and

31
00:03:16,580 --> 00:03:21,650
something you know rather than have to
go through two or three different people

32
00:03:19,340 --> 00:03:23,980
to get to that point for the rest of
this here

33
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:38,580
no any question is that part of the
recommendation is there would be someone

34
00:03:36,290 --> 00:03:43,890
basically here kind of had a full-time
basis during the work day is that what

35
00:03:40,530 --> 00:03:46,970
your that would have authority to
[Music]

36
00:03:48,230 --> 00:03:56,940
somebody here you know pretty much you
know day to day basis in Hillman

37
00:03:53,550 --> 00:04:04,260
full-time basis yes be given authority
by the Chairman to act as an as a

38
00:03:59,910 --> 00:04:11,519
temporary interim administrator so with
the with this individual essentially

39
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:15,170
fill the shoes of say our past County
Administrator I mean what they'll not

40
00:04:15,290 --> 00:04:23,370
but they would play that role full-time
not just be somebody for the department

41
00:04:20,729 --> 00:04:28,770
heads to go to or I mean is it
administrators a lot more than that

42
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:33,630
they'll you know work on the budget on
the budget and work on the day to day

43
00:04:31,460 --> 00:04:37,650
basis too because he'll we still have
those department has have to answer to

44
00:04:35,190 --> 00:04:42,539
somebody or get answers from somebody I
think we need somebody in there pretty

45
00:04:39,930 --> 00:04:46,950
much on a full-time basis until we
decided which direction we're going to

46
00:04:43,710 --> 00:04:54,270
actually head okay mister diddie oh yeah
I would support Joe Bennett and what he

47
00:04:52,710 --> 00:05:01,590
does
people that are lying to come in its

48
00:04:57,810 --> 00:05:06,599
interim and I think we need to use them
right away

49
00:05:02,370 --> 00:05:27,419
we can't wait any it shouldn't be
waiting I guess the important point if

50
00:05:26,130 --> 00:05:35,099
we're going to talk about specific
people we need to go to executive

51
00:05:28,620 --> 00:05:40,139
session that's not emotional no I'm not
honey I'm just saying if we people want

52
00:05:37,949 --> 00:05:53,729
to talk about specific ideas new objects
of specific people we go to executive

53
00:05:42,389 --> 00:06:00,360
session we can't be talking about I
don't you know I think we've wrestled

54
00:05:56,190 --> 00:06:04,949
with that yeah going with an
administrator in part at least an in

55
00:06:04,500 --> 00:06:13,409
terment
in part because we have our department

56
00:06:08,430 --> 00:06:17,849
heads that ideally would step up one of
them would step up into the position and

57
00:06:15,889 --> 00:06:22,800
familiarity with the county and the
operations would be beneficial but they

58
00:06:20,940 --> 00:06:30,360
have their own full-time position it's
that that they have to do their work for

59
00:06:26,580 --> 00:06:36,750
so it's always been kind of a rub
well on how to move them up but then

60
00:06:35,310 --> 00:06:44,370
make sure that their own department
stays functioning well and I've always

61
00:06:42,780 --> 00:06:49,289
said it that we take our best department
heads stick them into another department

62
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:58,340
because they do so well on their own
department and then they get ruined

63
00:06:51,810 --> 00:07:04,800
to some extent and it causes chaos if we
move one of them over we have to give

64
00:07:01,229 --> 00:07:09,750
them our full support that's the only
way it ever works so I mean those are

65
00:07:07,979 --> 00:07:13,639
just my comments on the situation for
right now charlie

66
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:34,169
we need going they don't do that

67
00:07:38,340 --> 00:08:37,510
[Music]
well yeah so if we were to take a

68
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:42,250
current employee make them in term
administrator they would move from their

69
00:08:39,909 --> 00:08:49,390
position to the administrator position
then we would have to fill somehow the

70
00:08:45,940 --> 00:08:52,630
position they left and then at after the
first of the year whatever path we may

71
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:57,160
go maybe they're the new County
Administrator from there on out and

72
00:08:54,399 --> 00:09:01,570
that's fine and if they're not and what
do we do we fire them or the person to

73
00:08:59,680 --> 00:09:06,279
filter our job behind them or shuffle
things around it makes things kind of

74
00:09:03,910 --> 00:09:09,430
sticky in a lot of situations mr.
Bennett yeah I'd like to make motion

75
00:09:07,959 --> 00:09:17,770
we're going to executive such a short
executive session for um to discuss

76
00:09:13,029 --> 00:09:28,000
personnel matters second discussion all
in favor any opposed

77
00:09:20,110 --> 00:09:32,649
okay you want to invite anybody in your
attorney please

78
00:09:29,170 --> 00:09:40,230

the second floor we need Lisa a charge

79
