County Manager's report - The County Manager gave an oral report advising the Board the he would be asking the Department Heads in the County effective December 1, 2001 to reduce the remaining portion of their Services and Supplies budget by 10% and also imposing a selective freeze on vacant County positions exempting certain public health, hospital, public safety workers and reviewing other positions as they are requested to be filled. This is to generate a saving of $15 million to carry over into next year's budget to help through a difficult financial situation, which is forecasted for FY 2002-03. By keeping open the positions without affecting critical services those will be positions that will enable the County to not have to lay-off employees next year. Saving money and preserving as many positions, so that if the County does have to cut positions there will be vacant positions to transfer existing employees into. The County is looking at a very uncertain next 18 to 24 months and we need to make sure that the County's fiscal house is in order as we go into that period of time. |
