1. 2020 Final Budget Discussion
i. Mayor Lacy spoke regarding Assistant Police Chief Coble and the
possibility of moving him to a “Chief of Detectives Position”, AC Coble has
agreed to accept the assigned position if created. Mayor Lacy said this
would eliminate the Assistant Chief Position.
No decisions were made by the Council and the Mayor will work on
this change for 2020.
ii. Judge Crowell spoke to Council regarding the Court Administrator Position
and pointed out the changes made to the 2020 Salary Ordinance that were
originally presented by Mayor Lacy. Judge Crowell stated that the changes
are not acceptable as this position is out of comparable pay range. Judge
Crowell asked the Council to allow the original amount to be included in the
2020 budget for a monthly salary of $6,195.02.
The Council debated and unanimously requested that Finance
Director Josh Delay update the 2020 Salary Ordinance to reflect
$6,195.02 for the Court Administrator Position and $7,752.44 for the
Project Development Manager Position that was also adjusted since
the original presentation of the Salary Ordinance.
