minutes 02-09-00Page 20 of 41 <br />BEN: About two years ago, I think, under your term. <br />SANTANGELO: Okay, that’s when we struggled with that, yes. <br />BEN: The Council passed enabling language. The two Departments are still wrestling with developing a schedule. <br />RAY: What’s your pleasure? <br />HERKES: I’d make a motion if I could figure out what to put in it. Got any suggestions? I would like to make a motion that <br />we give the Salary Commission the opportunity to set Department Head and Deputy Department Head salaries. <br />IRVINE: Second. <br />HERKES: Now, what else I have to say in that motion, I don’t know. Can we just say that? <br />YUEN: No, I think that’s fine. I take it that you would include - Let me just talk about the gray - the Legislative Auditor <br />would be included. <br />HERKES: Yes. <br />YUEN: What about Safety Coordinator, included or not included? <br />HERKES: Safety Coordinator is in the Civil Service Office. I thought we took that out. It’s separate. <br />YUEN: But the voters have not done that. Just tell me, if the voters don’t put the Safety Coordinator in the Civil Service <br />Department, would you want the Salary Commission to set that person’s salary? <br />HERKES: You’re asking me if I want a Safety Coordinator, aren’t you? <br />YUEN: No, not that. <br />HERKES: Yes, that’s the only place it could set it. <br />YUEN: Okay, then we understand the motion, I think, and it can be written without specifically saying Safety Coordinator. <br />There’s a way to write it so it would include the Safety Coordinator. <br />IRVINE: Would this leave out the County Physicians and the Band Director, then? <br />YUEN: Right, the motion, as stated, would not include the physicians and the Band Directors. <br />RAY: So, discussion on that motion. Gary. <br />YOSHIYAMA: I’d like to amend the motion, if I could, to include the other positions as proposed by the Salary <br />Commission. <br />RAY: Do we have a second? <br />MARTIN: Second. <br />HERKES: You have to have my permission. I mean Gary has to have my permission to amend the motion. <br />SANTANGELO: No, he doesn’t. <br />MARTIN: This is correct, but we can vote on it and then we can amend it. <br />file://\\coh01\cohweb\council\charter_commission\minutes\minutes 02-09-00.html7/1/2011 <br /> <br />
