Commis- sioner Lyons noted that we have a salary survey in the mill and felt we might want to make an in-depth job survey in this department to determine whether it is adequately manned, adequately paid, etc. Motion was made by Commissioner Lyons that, in connection with the previously proposed salary survey, a look be taken at the workload in the department of the Board Secretary to see if _ it is adequately manned, has the proper job description, etc. Chairman Scurlock noted that Mrs. Forlani is now classified as a secretary which is no way describes what she actually does. He also believed --that her compensation is out of line since we have new administrative assistants paid in a range that is not at all compatible with the salary paid someone in Mrs. Forlani's position who has been with the county ten years. Commissioner Fletcher stated he had no problem with adjusting the compensation and job title, but he did have a problem with hiring someone to do a survey to sustain what we already know is so. Chairman Scurlock believed Commissioner Lyons was just trying to include this in with the other study. He noted that we must address this situation quickly because unless she will reconsider, we are faced with bringing someone on board. Commissioner Fletcher commented that he has had several members of the public ask him what the Commission has done now to cause the loss of someone that valuable. 8 sooF 49 PASE 484 APR 28 1982
