<br /> In reviewing the Building Inspections budget, it was noted that a County
<br />fire inspector was mandated by State Building Code effective July 1, 1991.
<br />Therefore, an electrical/fire inspector position was included in the recommended
<br />Fiscal Year 1991-92 budget. Also included in the Building Inspections budget
<br />was a recommendation for a part-time secretary to work 50 percent of the time
<br />in Planning/Zoning/Building Inspections and 50 percent of the time in Emergency
<br />Medical Services. In response to this request and others for clerical support,
<br />the Board discussed the establishment of a typing pool for data entry and typing
<br />for those departments in the Governmental Center and Emergency Medical Services.
<br />The Board by consensus agreed to include an Administrative Secretary position,
<br />Level IV, in the County Manager/Personnel budget and to monitor the position for
<br />six months.
<br /> UPON MOTION of Chairman Simmons, seconded by Commissioner Barnhart and
<br />unanimously carried, the Board approved the following changes to the recommended
<br />Building Inspections budget: Delete the secretarial position from Salaries and
<br />Wages (Line Item 101); Reduce Printing and Binding (Line Item 320) to $1,525.00;
