Subject: Response to Mr Graybeal Chatlist #5015
From John Graybeal’s Chatlist #5015 Post:
…..”One wonders whether these activities explain why these commissioners decided one meeting each month would be better than two;”…
I’ve copied the minutes from the County BOC budget retreat on January 19th below. It’s pretty clear who wanted the change.
“*Commissioner Kost asked what the County would lose and/or what the county would save if the BOC met only once a month. Commissioner Kost believes it will save in minutes and staff time. Ms. Paschal stated money would also be saved on food and employee compensation time. After some discussion, the Board agreed to reduce BOC meetings to only once a month, effective immediately. **Commissioner Cross moved, seconded by Commissioner Kost, to reduce BOC meetings to one meeting every third Monday of the month, effective immediately. The motion carried five (5) to zero (0).”*
