The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and by a vote <br />of 2-3 (Commissioners Davis, Flescher, and Wheeler <br />opposed), the MOTION FAILED. <br />Human Resources Director James Sexton provided background and details of the drug- <br />free workplace policy as it applies to this case. He disclosed that the policy had been followed, <br />wherein the employee notified the County, and because the employee is not in a safety sensitive <br />position or in a special risk position, there was no need to transfer or move the employee to a <br />different set of tasks. <br />A brief discussion ensued among the Commissioners regarding the discussion being <br />limited to only County policy, not personalities. <br />Director Sexton said the next step in the process, according to the policy, is to wait on the <br />disposition of the charges, and upon the disposition of the case. If it is an outcome that the <br />Board is not favorable to, then they could decide at that point if any action is necessary. He <br />reemphasized that there is no need to remove Administrator Baird from any tasks because it is <br />not in a safety sensitive or special risk position. <br />Attorney Collins responded to questions regarding Administrator Baird's County <br />vehicle/car allowance. <br />Chairman Davis opened the floor to the public. He asked speakers to stay on the specific <br />issue of the County policy, and nothing related to the County Administrator. <br />29 <br />June 9, 2009 <br />
