sometimes has been vocal. There was an attempt yesterday to <br />solve a difficult situation and move on to better things; that <br />obviously wasn't what was going to happen. Up until yesterday, <br />he did feel some respect for Mr. Balczun, but after yesterday, <br />(and he met with Mr. Balczun yesterday), he has lost that respect <br />totally. That is very unfortunate, and the Chairman stated that <br />he hates to say that s a public meeting, but that is the way he <br />feels. The fact is that the morale in the county is far worse <br />than stated at the meeting - if you look at the history and the <br />hires that have been made since this man came on board and where <br />we are now. The Chairman continued that the thing that bothers <br />him most is the dishonesty in terms of working Commissioners <br />against one another - suggesting that the salary survey was <br />pushed and the workshop was demanded by the Chairman, and, he, <br />therefore, would be damned if he will sit here and have him (Mr. <br />Balczun) call and manipulate Commissioners at night. We have an <br />excellent staff, and it is the leader, and Chairman Scurlock <br />clearly expressed his strong feeling that he wants the Adminis- <br />trator out of here today, and he will vote for the Motion. <br />Administrator Balczun wished to state clearly his willing- <br />ness not only to work for the next 90 days, but to do so <br />effectively and efficiently and productively. <br />Commissioner Bowman expressed her feeling that this is <br />rather precipitous, and she wished she had a chance to review <br />these Minutes (of the meeting of February 23rd) before we had <br />this meeting. She emphasized the need to be on very solid legal <br />grounds as she worried about any possible suit there could be. <br />Chairman Scurlock stated that he had no worries about that. <br />He met with the County Attorney till almost 6 o'clock yesterday <br />going over the Minutes referred to. He reaffirmed with Adminis- <br />trative Aide Liz Forlani that she has the absolute same recollec- <br />tion re signing of the contract; it being delivered to our office <br />and bringing it personally to him. So, there is no question in <br />his mind as to what happened in reference to that. The Minutes <br />4 BOOK 73 F".�f.41_6 <br />AUG 1 � i988 <br />
