Commissioner Eggert commented that she personally would like to see some of the others who have had more county experience; there were many who had town and city experience, but didn't seem to have touched utilities or public works at all. Commissioner -Bowman dgreed and also felt another valuable asset would be a person who might have worked in a county having a committee oriented Commission as we do. She asked how many of these seven Mr. Mercer interviewed personally. Mr. Mercer explained that all applicants have been inter- viewed by a partner of the firm. He personally interviewed five of the seven presented and probably 12 additional people were interviewed. Commissioner Bowman expressed interest in seeing those 12 resumes, and Chairman Scurlock reiterated that while we may want the opportunity to cull down the 7 presented, he would like any Commissioner to have the opportunity to look at the rest of the 100 resumes submitted, or as many as they wish, and possibly suggest adding another to the list. Mr. Mercer noted that the Board is totally in control of the decision making process and asked if the Board would like to think about a date to start doing the interviews. After further discussion, Chairman Scurlock believed he was hearing that the Board would like an opportunity to look at the entire list, do a bit of work on that, and subject to that, then would be in a position to start the interview process. Commissioner Bird asked if we are expecting Mr. Mercer to supply us with copies of the 100 resumes, and Acting Administra- tor Collins asked if the Commissioners were planning to read all 100 resumes. Commissioner Bird stated he was not, but the Chairman stated that he was, and he wanted all 100. Commissioner Bowman sug- gested we get only the top 50, but Commissioners Eggert and Wheeler agreed they would like to look through most of them, if not all. NOV 151988 20 Boor. d: F�.��E164.
