According to Ms. Cobb, one can only assume that the <br />"firings" were political in nature as, to her knowledge, none of the officers had <br />a single reprimand in his or her personnel file. The five employees included <br />Officers Damon Bostick, Jeff Miller, Clyde Furr, Dorothy Lawing and Steve Hilton. <br /> <br /> Mr. Wallace Htnnant complained that the proposed contract with Mayflower <br />Contract Services favors the provider, not Cabarrus County. He objected to a <br />blanket increase for the entire transportation program, stating that the clients <br />who need the door-to-door service can be identified. Mr. Hinnant challenged the <br />Board to insure that the contract is in favor of the County and that the <br />contracted services are provided. <br /> <br /> There was no one else present who wished to address the Board, and Chairman <br />Barnhart closed the meeting for Informal Public Comments. <br /> <br />.Adjournment <br /> <br /> There being no further business to come before the Board, Chairman Barnhart <br />adjourned the meeting at 7:50 P.M. <br /> <br />Clerk to the Board <br /> <br /> <br />
