BOOK Fa�ae <br />SheriffWheeler asked that he be made aware of any abuses and agreed that any abuses would <br />be taken care of administratively. He also noted that a question had been raised at the prior budget <br />meeting regarding his attendance and assured the Board that he would have been present had he <br />known the Board wanted him to be. He felt that it was not standard operating procedure for <br />constitutional officers to attend the budget meetings. <br />Commissioner Adams continued that she had requested information from the Sheriff's <br />Department on several occasions which has not yet been provided. She also commented that she <br />understood that the Sheriffwas allowing some employees to work additional jobs during the day and <br />split their hours. She had received complaints about this practice. <br />Sheriff Wheeler responded that his Comptroller has been allowed to work flexible hours as <br />he is an exempt employee without overtime or benefits. Flex time is available to all of his other <br />employees, with the exception of law enforcement employees. <br />Ricky Dees, Sheriffs Office Comptroller, 1290 40* Avenue SW, read a letter to the Board <br />explaining the prior procedures used in accounting for the out -of -county prisoner revenue and <br />expenses and requested that the letter be included in the official records ofthis meeting. (CLERK'S <br />NOTE: MR. DEES' PRESENTATION IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE <br />BOARD WITH THE BACKUP FOR TODAY'S MEETING.) <br />Further discussion ensued regarding the procedures used in the past, the state of the accounts <br />at the present time, and plans for future procedures to be adopted. <br />Budget Director Joe Baird suggested that a written policy be adopted going back to the policy <br />of handling the out -of -county prisoner revenue and expenses on a monthly basis. <br />The Sheriff confirmed that such a policy would be agreeable. <br />SEPTEMBER 21, 1999 <br />n <br />
