Commissioner Ginn had questions of management as to what is being done to insure <br />that the problems discovered in the Utilities Department are being corrected. <br />Administrator Chandler advised that the problems have been identified and the causes <br />of the problems have been addressed and continue to be addressed. He gave assurances that <br />the situation has been corrected and will not occur again in the future. He credited the <br />auditors for their help and Assistant Finance Director Jeff Smith for his assistance. There <br />is more communication internally in the department and a working relationship with the <br />Finance Department has been established. Some errors were discovered in the program <br />provided by the outside billing firm that needed to be tightened up. <br />Commissioner Ginn explained that she felt the public needed to have that explanation <br />in case any of them were going to ask the question. She suggested a quarterly or semi-annual <br />report on that situation. <br />Commissioner Eggert felt the report should be made to the Utilities Advisory <br />Committee; Commissioner Ginn agreed that was a very good idea. <br />8.B. 92V of Vero Beach Request Concerning Purchase of'Lost Tree <br />Islands - Combined with Item HA. - Land Acquisition Program <br />Financial Status Report <br />Chairman Tippin announced that he would let everyone speak who wished to, and <br />asked that they all respect the rights of others who may not agree with their point -of -view. <br />Community Development Director Bob Keating reviewed the following Memorandum <br />dated May 6, 1998 (from 1 LA.): <br />TO: James Chandler <br />County Administrator <br />FROM: Robert M.
