OCT 13 1987 - BOOK 69 FACE 634 .. Commissioner Wheeler noted the impression he got from the Cemetery Association was that was a lot of the purpose of that cemetery; they have buried some indigents there. Chairman Scurlock believed we should put them on notice not to start burying on that portion. He stated that he also was opposed to going out and buying replacement property. Attorney Vitunac informed the Board that the Cemetery Association is on notice because if the federal government invokes the restriction, the land will go back to the federal government. He confirmed that he will send them another letter saying that property is still not available for burying while Commissioner Bird works on possible alternative property. Commissioner Bowman suggested that he include in his Letter the restriction discussed about being open to the public and non- discriminatory, and Board members agreed we should have that provision somewhere in writing. Attorney Vitunac felt that language would come in the transfer of the land we are talking about. PROCEDURE FOR PLACING ITEMS ON THE AGENDA Chairman Scurlock referred to the following memo: TO: Board of County Commissioners FROM: Liz Forlani, Administrative Aide to the Board RE: SUGGESTED AMENDMENTS TO POLICY PROCEDURE DATE: October 7, 1987 At the September 22, 1987 meeting the memo regarding Procedures for Placing Items on the Agenda was tabled for further discussion on October 13th when there would be a full Board present. Input was received from Commissioners on suggestions to the policy procedure and they are as follows: 1. Emergency items that require no funding or substantial staffing may be placed on agenda by Commissioners without staffing. Items directing staff may also be placed on an agenda by Commissioners. 2. Within 10 working days the Administrator will put an item that required staffing back on the agenda; if there is a delay, the Board will be notified in writing. 42
