Management asked permission to speak. Mr. Valentine stated that <br />he is topped out, but he can't get into those higher positions <br />because they are already filled by men who are holding titles <br />they are not worthy of. He emphasized that those men cannot do <br />what that job calls for; there are three chief mechanics <br />position, and none of the people in those positions are chief <br />mechanics. <br />Chairman Scurlock asked if there isn't a process to get rid <br />of them if they can't do the job, and the Administrator felt Mr. <br />Valentine is talking about his bosses. Administrator Wright <br />stated that he has a lot of respect for Mr. Valentine's opinions <br />and that is one of the areas where he wants to take a good hard <br />look. He believed there are four people in this area that are <br />topped out. <br />Chairman Scurlock agreed we must address this. <br />Commissioner Wodtke stated that the greatest asset this <br />county has is our employees, and if the employees have a problem <br />with the procedure, he believed that Administrator Wright wants <br />to know about it. He noted that when he has gotten calls from <br />disgruntled employees, he has referred them to Mr. Wright. <br />Commissioner Wodtke stressed the importance of letting people <br />know you have a problem and emphasized that if anyone feels there <br />are repercussions or any problem from following this procedure, <br />he and all the Commissioners want to hear about it. Commissioner <br />Wodtke then asked Attorney Vitunac what our.options are if we do <br />not approve the Special Master's recommendations. <br />Attorney Vitunac explained that this is the final step in <br />the whole process. The law allows each side an opportunity to <br />make its own case before the public; then the law says <br />"Thereafter the legislative -body shall take such action as it <br />deems to be in the public interest to resolve all the disputed <br />impasse issues." He stated that gives the Commission a full <br />range of choices. <br />21 <br />FE E 19.1986 Boos 63 PAGE 711 <br />
