1 J <br />® year's 2008-09 budget. The debt repayment schedule is basically structured so the county can <br />borrow again in five-years from the last issuance, which will be in 2011, unless a significant tax <br />increase is approved. Mr Crumpton addressed the following as his "top ten" priorities that need <br />to be identified in the coming months. <br />Space Needs - (A) Poor working conditions, safety issues and operational <br />issues/customer convenience at the Community Development office, (B) <br />Emergency Management and Fire Marshal's offices have outgrown their space, <br />which is currently located at City Hall; and (C) overcrowding and lack of storage <br />space for files at the Government Center. <br />2. <br />Performance Measures Initiative - Whether or not the Board approves a Merit Pay <br />Program, Performance Measures need to continue and be enhanced so we can <br />measure how we are performing as an organization. It is also felt that performance <br />Measures can tie into an Annual ReviewlEvaluation of each employee- Employee <br />evaluations need to be completed on an annual basis with a six-month progress <br />evaluation completed during the year on all full time employees. <br />3. <br />Overall Organization/Position Classifications/Departments - Needs to be studied <br />for reorganization into functional requirements. Mr. Crumpton will address this <br />more in detail during the upcoming budget process. <br />4 <br />General Services - This department needs to be reorganized since the Assistant <br />County Manager position has been eliminated. Clear lines of authority and <br />reporting will be set up when the new General Services Director position is filled. <br />5. <br />Time and Attendance Program - Time and attendance-payroll management <br />system needs to be implemented as soon as possible. This project is currently <br />• <br />under construction. <br />6. <br />Safety Issues - Safety needs to be at the top of the list. Accident Review <br />Committee and Safety Committees need to be meeting and active in reducing <br />injuries and accidents- Workers Comp and Property and Liability premiums appear <br />to be high for a County this size. This is mainly due to the number of claims <br />submitted and increases in payroll dollars. <br />T <br />Solid Waste - The closure of the County's C&D landfill will be addressed later in <br />the meeting. Mr Crompton feels that waste issues need to be addressed - <br />collection - private versus public. <br />8. <br />County Vehicles - County vehicles need to be purged as many are un-necessary, <br />causing higher premiums Also need to review the vehicle maintenance costs and <br />review alternatives <br />9 <br />Customer Service - Need to continue the good work that has been started with the <br />Customer Service training. Needs to be taken to a higher level. <br />10 <br />Overall Attitude of Employees - Morale appears to be improving daily- Need to <br />change how people think about their jobs and what there job is. Principles such as <br />teamwork, continual improvement, and being a great customer service agency will <br />be discussed constantly. Departments will be challenged to shrink to greatness. <br />Mr. Crumpton believes that smaller teams work better than bigger teams- The <br />bureaucratic process doesn't have time to stop a lean organization from making <br />changes and improving. If it is the Board's wish to hold the tax rate next year, the <br />idea of operating a lean and efficient workforce will have to be the main focal point. <br />After some discussion, Commissioner Smith moved to accept Mr. Crompton's 90-Day Report to <br />40 the Board. Upon a vote, the results were as follows: <br />3 <br />
