Commissioner Macht noted that planners are compensated at higher levels than <br />librarians, and Commissioner Adams noted that industry has always valued women's <br />positions to a lesser degree than men's. <br />Mr. Pellegrino stated that the recommendations made are very conservative and asked <br />the Board to pay particular attention to recruiting entry level positions and retention of long- <br />time employees. <br />Assistant Administrator Baird noted that Alternate A had been recommended as the <br />least costly alternate due to the fact that no monies had been set aside for this purpose this <br />year. Any funding would have to come from the contingency fund, reserves or a bond issue. <br />County Administrator Jim Chandler noted that the pay plan study had just been <br />initiated during the budget workshop period and plans were made to implement the plan <br />during the next fiscal year. <br />Commissioner Macht wanted to bring the plan back next week with some <br />modifications; for example, the Board's own staff. He felt that the scope of their <br />responsibilities could not have been considered. However, he did feel that any problems <br />could be adjusted as discovered in the current plan. <br />Mr. Pellegrino stated that the plan is not a comparable worth study, just a reflection <br />of the current market. He believed that the Board's staff had been substantially upgraded <br />under this plan. <br />MARCH 13, 2001 <br />Bill, Pu <br />-34- <br />
