MOTION WAS MADE by Vice Chairman Davis, SECONDED <br />by Commissioner Flescher, to approve the request for travel <br />expenses for Dr. Sidney T. Bacchus. <br />In response to questions from Commissioner Wheeler, Robert Adair, Chairman of the AAC, <br />provided curriculum vitae on Dr. Bacchus and explained the need to use her services. <br />Commissioner Wheeler did not want to set any precedence for consultants to come and offer <br />their services. Chairman Bowden thought it was a good thing to do this periodically. The Board debated <br />the need to use this Consultant's services. <br />The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and by a 4-1 vote <br />(Commissioner Wheeler opposed) the Board approved travel <br />expenses, not to exceed $1,000.00, for Dr. Sidney Bacchus to <br />visit the County to evaluate and review the current water quality <br />and the effects of mining activities on our water supply, as <br />requested in the memorandum of January 14, 2008. <br />Commissioner Wheeler made it clear that this has nothing to do with the Consultant's <br />expertise, but was just a matter of principle. <br />C.
