Special Meeting August 21, 2001
Meeting called to order by Chair O'Connell at 8:05 a.m. Present:
Tom O'Connell, Tom Dorsey, Ralph Swenson. Absent and excused -
Stan Krueger and Nancy Bieraugel. Staff present: Administrative
Coordinator Chuck Whiting, Finance Director Rich Loney,
Corporation Counsel Greg Timmerman and County Clerk Sue Nelson.
Motion by Swenson, 2nd by Dorsey to adopt the agenda. Carried.
Consideration of Filling Banked Position in Clerk of Courts:
Whiting explained there is presently a "banked" vacant position
in the Clerk of Court office. There is a full time Financial
Assistant in the Clerk of Court office under the direction of the
Finance Director. This person works about 40 hours a month in
the Finance Dept. and the remainder in the Clerk of Courts. This
40 hours a month may be changed up to half time for Finance.
Clerk of Court Lori Meyer Frascht stated the need for a full time
person to work more on collections.
Finance Director Rich Loney said the Financial Assistant is
funded through the Finance Dept. There are currently two banked
positions that will be lapsed.
Swenson said the Personnel Committee has eliminated banked
positions but will meet tomorrow for one-time exceptions.
Dorsey commented it would make more sense to leave the full time
Financial Assistant in Clerk of Court and hire a new part time
person for Finance.
Whiting and Frascht said specifics are not worked out at this
time but approval is needed now to forward to Personnel
Committee.
Motion by Swenson, 2nd by Dorsey to forward to Personnel and
recommend a positive reconsideration for a banked position for
Clerk of Court office with duties of financial analysis and
reconciliation. Carried.
O'Connell thanked Swenson for chairing the August meeting in his
absence. Motion to adjourn by Swenson, 2nd by Dorsey. Meeting
adjourned at 8:35 a.m.
