The Schools' program is currently housed <br />at the County Schools Administrative complex and must relocate when the <br />administrative offices move to a new facility. Further, the consolidation <br />would provide an opportunity for RCCC to occupy a larger facility and to <br />provide expanded occupational training to both high school students and <br />adults. To implement the consolidation, additional space will need to be <br />leased and upfitted at the RCCC facility in Cloverleaf Plaza at an estimated <br />cost of approximately $75,000.00. <br /> <br /> There was brief discussion regarding the merits of consolidating the <br />cosmetology programs. <br /> <br /> UPON MOTION of Commissioner Privette, seconded by Vice Chairman Suggs <br />and unanimously carried, the Board (1) approved consolidating the cosmetology <br />programs at Rowan-Cabarrus Community College and Cabarrus County Schools as <br />described in a letter dated April 1, 2003 from RCCC President Dick Brownell, <br />(2) directed the County Manager to assist as needed, and (3) authorized the <br />appropriate budget amendment. <br /> <br />(F-5) Request for New Deputy Register of Deeds Position and Adoption of <br />Related Budget Amendment <br /> <br /> Ms. Linda McAbee, Register of Deeds, requested an additional full-time <br />position of Deputy Register of Deeds to meet the increased workload in that <br />office. She reviewed the increase in walk-in traffic, telephone calls, <br />recorded documents, vital records and cancellations of deeds of trust. <br />Further, Ms. McAbee discussed the total documents per employee, the delays in <br />filing instruments, need to maintain the current level of customer service <br />and overtime hours by employees. <br /> <br /> A motion was made by Chairman Freeman and seconded by Commissioner <br />Carpenter to approve the new deputy Register of Deeds position in the FY 2003 <br />budget and to adopt the related budget amendment. <br /> <br /> Commissioner Privette moved to defer the request for a new Deputy <br />Register of Deeds position until the upcoming budget review sessions. <br />Chairman Freeman withdrew his earlier motion and seconded the motion by <br />Commissioner Privette. <br /> <br /> A motion by Commissioner Carpenter to approve the new position request <br />died for lack of a second. <br /> <br /> Mr. Day advised that the Register of Deeds employees could receive <br />overtime pay rather than compensatory time when overtime work is required. <br /> The Board voted unanimously to approve the motion by Commissioner <br />Privette, seconded by Chairman Freeman, to defer the request for a new Deputy <br />Register of Deeds position until the upcoming budget sessions. <br /> <br />(F-7) Budget Review Schedule <br /> <br /> <br />
