She probably handles one phone call per day and two to <br />three in office customers per month. <br />If this resolution were to pass is would have a minimal effect on our Department. <br />j. $rerttWe~ner <br />Cabarrus County Tax Administrator <br />PO Box 707 <br />Concord, N.C. 28026-0707 <br />704-920-2171 <br />704-920-2111 (fax) <br />ibweisner(-?a,cabarruscoun ~.us <br />From: John Day <br />Sant: Tuesday, January 09, 2007 2:42 PM <br />To: _Depar'tment Heads <br />Cc: _BOC <br />Subject: Resolution - English as the Official Language <br />Good afternoon, <br />The attached resolution, introduced by Commissioner Privette, will be discussed by the BOC at its regular <br />meeting January 22. Last night the Board asked for comments from department directors regarding how such a <br />policy would impact the operations of their departments. Please read item number 4 carefulty - it states that all <br />programs, publications, documents, etc., will be in English only. The way I read it, no language other than English <br />will be spoken or written while conducting the county's business. <br />Please be brief and concise in your assessments, and include a list of any publications or documents used by <br />your departments that are in a language other than English. Please also indicate if you ever use the services of a <br />translator (staff member or contractor). <br />Forward this information to me by noon on Tuesday, January 16~'.
