SCHEDULING OF CAUCUS TO DISCUSS LABOR RELATIONS Administrator Wright felt that 1-1/2 hours would be needed for the caucus on labor relations and the Board scheduled it for Monday, June 17, 1985 at 8:30 A.M. PURCHASE OF NEW TAPE RECORDER FOR CLERK'S OFFICE Commissioner Scurlock advised that Freda Wright contacted him regarding the frequent malfunctioning of the present tape recorder and is requesting authorization to purchase a new one. Finance Director Ed Fry explained that the present reel-to-reel recorder which is used to tape the County Commission meetings was acquired in 1971 and has been getting rather unreliable and requested the Board's authorization to purchase a new tape recorder at an estimated cost of $2,000. Recording Secretary Virginia Hargreaves has recommended that we purchase the recorder from Dave Reuscher of Pride Electronics here in Vero Beach who offers excellent service capabilities. Administrator Wright advised that the cost is under the bidding limit, but Commissioner Scurlock felt we should get a couple of prices and that it should be funded from the Clerk's budget from some of the salary positions that have been open for some time. Director Fry advised that those funds were used for the new Data Processing equipment and computer memory expansion. Administrator Wright suggested that we run a line item in the Clerk's budget and if they run out of money, come back and take it out of contingencies. ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously authorized the purchase of a new tape recorder for the Clerk's Office at a cost of up to $2,000. 15 JUN 12 1985 BOOK 0�. rA;
