Business:
Mrs. Jones summarized the County Manager, Tommy Burns' budget recommendation to the
Board of Commissioners. The budget was mainly intact from how it was submitted with the
exception of the fourth position being removed. Money was still left in to hire temporary help
during the election. The Board discussed and agreed that the Elections office could still work
efficiently with this budget.
Mrs. Jones informed the board that all processes with the Primary were complete. The last item
to be completed since Canvass was running all absentee ballots by VTD. The due date for that is
July 3 but the office has already completed the task.
Filing for Soil and Water begins Monday June 9 at 12:00 noon and runs until July 7 at 12:00
noon. It will be a vote for two option. Mrs. Jones stated that she would call over to the soil and
water office and make sure they are aware of the dates for filing.
The Board discussed if Board meeting minutes should be placed online. Mrs. Jones stated that
the minutes are open public records and are always available in the front office. People rarely ask
for or look at them. The Board did not vote but agreed that there was no need in posting them
online. They will address the issue at a later time should the need arise.
With no other business to discuss Mr. Powell moved to adjourn. Mr. Spears seconded. The
meeting was adjourned at 4:25 pm.
The next meeting of the Board is a regular meeting on July 1, 2014 at 4:00 pm.
