Discuss Uniform
Contracts |
Mr. Hall explained
that there is currently one contract in place for floor mats and
uniforms and that the contract is going to expire in the very
near future. He stated that before renewal he wanted to get the
Board’s thoughts on whether or not to renew the contract, if
clothing allowances should be given to employees instead, if the
number of mats should be reduced or otherwise. Commissioner
Genter asked what the departments take on this was. Mr. Hall
stated that maintenance and transfer station employees are fine
with the current arrangement, however the housekeeping staff
would prefer a clothing allowance. Mr. Hall shared that in
discussions with the maintenance supervisor, his only request
was to keep uniformity and consistency with all of the
uniforms. Commissioner Genter stated that the time is right for
competition and suggested putting it out for bid. Commissioner
Short asked who launders the uniforms. Mr. Hall stated that the
company does the laundering and is included in the contract
price, however the housekeeping staff prefers to launder their
own. Mr. Hall stated that he will see what other services are
available and bring it back before the board at that time. |

·Discuss Invoice
from Henry County Regarding Magistrate Health Insurance Costs
Resolution
2009-236 Approve Payment of Invoice from Henry County
for Magistrate’s Health Care Costs |
Mr. Hall presented a
letter from Judge Barber and an invoice from Henry County
relative to health insurance costs for Magistrate Richard
Altman. These costs are to be shared between Fulton and Henry
County. Henry County has paid these costs for 4 years and did
no bill for Fulton’s portion and are now submitting an invoice.
Mr. Hall noted that both counties have an IV-D Contract to cover
these costs, however, not knowing that this was not taken care
of, this amount was not budgeted for and there are no
appropriations in place. To take care of this invoice, payment
will need to be made out of the health insurance line. An
increase in appropriations will need to be done.
Commissioner Barnaby
made the motion and Commissioner Genter seconded the motion.
Motion carried unanimously. |
|
10:13:16 AM |
·Discuss Request of
Title Office
Resolution
2009-237 Matter tabled |
Mr. Hall stated that
Mary Gype has an employee retiring from her title office and is
requesting to replace the position with another full time
employee. He then explained the current funding arrangement for
the title office. The General Fund pays for the position up
front and then twice each year, any excess title funds
accumulated are transferred into the General Fund as agreed
between the Clerk of Courts and the Board.
Commissioner Genter
stated that he can’t justify another General Fund Expenditure
and another employee and stated that she would need to operate
out of her own title fund for this.
Commissioner Barnaby
made the motion to table this matter and Commissioner Short
seconded the motion. Commissioner Short stated that he would
like to have Mary Gype come in and explain her situation on the
26th. Motion carried unanimously. |

·Discuss Letter from
FAA Regarding Eligibility of Fencing Projects
Resolution
2009-238 |
A letter was
received from the FAA regarding the eligibility of fencing
projects. Commissioner Short explained that this is related to
the property owned by Jensen Bridge near the Airport. He stated
that they have put in an asphalt driveway pursuant to an
agreement for use. The FAA wants to fence off the area or tear
out the driveway. Commissioner Short further explained that
there are program dollars available for this. A gate would be
put up on CR 14 to allow access for emergency personnel. He
stated this will be a 10’ fence that will go the length of the
property. Commissioner Barnaby made the motion and Commissioner
Genter seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. |

2009-222 Increase and Transfer Appropriations for
Various Departments |
One of the increases
included herein is pursuant to a letter received from Judge
Barber, Common Pleas Court, stating that in 1999, Adult
Probation Officer Chamberlin was issued a 1999 Ford Taurus to
assist him in the execution of his duties. Office Chamberlin
has conveyed to the Judge that he is concerned with the
reliability of said Taurus and that it is not equipped to
provide the appropriate level of safety while transporting
offenders. Officer Chamberlin has recommended the Taurus be
replaced. Judge Barber stated in his letter that he agrees with
Officer Chamherlin’s recommendation and supports him in his
efforts. A price quote of the vehicle is attached to his letter

supervision fees that are collected from offenders on community
