sooK 13 Pn E 320 Commissioner Cox asked why Lee County Industries does not just give the bus to the County. Mr. Cowan replied that it is restrictive because it was bought with Department of Transportation Section 16B Funds. All the vans that were purchased in the Department for the Aging were purchased through the same program. They were actually purchased through Lee County Industries and then leased to Lee County. The Department for the Aging is required to pay 10% of the cost. Commissioner Cox moved to refer this matter to the Finance Committee for their recommendation and for Mr. Cowan to contact the DOT to see if we can obtain title to the bus. Commissioner Dossenbach seconded the motion and upon a vote the results were as follows: Aye: Cox, Dossenbach, Stafford and Wicker Nay: None The Chairman ruled the motion carried unanimously. The Chairman recognized Mr. Michael Matochik, Library Director who asked the Board's consideration of a job reclassification for a Librarian II to replace the Assistant Director position at the Library. The two major reasons for the reclassification are: (1) the library's growing need for expanded and better reference service and (2) with the salary differential they will be able to add to the staff (through an employment service) an office manager who will perform regular secretarial duties which would have fallen on the Assistant Director. With the proposed reclassification a salary differential of $3,773 is available for an office manager position. In addition other salary funds are available from the leave without pay of the outreach Specialist. Commissioner Cox moved to approve the request. Commissioner Stafford seconded the motion and upon a vote the results were as follows: Aye: Cox, Dossenbach, Stafford and Wicker Nay: None The Chairman ruled the motion carried unanimously. The Board next considered approval of the sale of surplus property. Commissioner Dossenbach moved for adoption of the following Resolution: WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners of the County of Lee adopted a resolution expressing its desire to dispose of certain surplus property of the County; and WHEREAS, the Board received an offer for the purchase of said property in the amount of $3,200.00; and WHEREAS, the Board proposed to accept said bid for the purchase of said property unless an upset shall be made and public notice was given as required by law; and 8
