At its April 28 meeting, the Ohio County Fiscal Court hired personnel, approved a pay raise for the County Road Department, advertised for bids on a truck, replaced the batteries in the weather sirens, and got rid of the citizen sign-up sheet at its meetings. — The Ohio County Community Golf Course advertised for part-time seasonal employees. At the April 28 meeting, the golf course asked the fiscal court to hire Mackenzie Clothier as a seasonal golf course attendant. Second District Magistrate Jason Bullock reminded the court the golf course wasn’t going to hire any more seasonal workers, but this was a special case. It was explained Clothier would only be working as needed or when other golf course employees had time off. Clothier is expected to only work until mid-August. Ohio County Judge-Executive David Johnston made a motion to hire Clothier as a seasonal golf course attendant at $8.50 per hour effective May 3. After a roll call vote, the motion passed unanimously. — During the time for committee reports, Fourth District Magistrate Larry Keown had some motions to make, according to Johnston. Keown made a motion to raise the pay of road department seasonal hires to $12 per hour, effective May 4. Fifth District Magistrate Larry Morphew seconded the motion. The former pay rate for seasonal hires was $10 per hour. He believed the county would receive more qualified applicants to the road department if the pay rate was raised to $12 per hour. After a roll call vote, the motion passed unanimously. Keown next made a motion to raise the pay of full-time workers at the Road Department to $12 per hour, effective May 4. The motion was seconded by Third District Magistrate Joe Barnes. The former pay rate of the full-time workers was $10 per hour. After a roll call vote, the motion passed unanimously. The pay raises for the road department were included in the Fiscal Year 2015-2016 budget. Keown made a motion the fiscal court advertise for bids on a used two ton truck with a diesel engine and air brakes. Barnes seconded the motion. After a roll call vote, the motion passed unanimously. — In March, the fiscal court approved the replacement of batteries at three emergency siren systems in the county. EMA Director Charlie Shields told the court the rest of the batteries will continue to go out until all have been replaced. The court decided to look into replacing all the sirens at a future meeting. First District Magistrate Sam Small made a motion the court replace all the batteries in the emergency siren systems for $4,332.12. The money will be transferred from the Reserves Fund to the Community Contributions Fund and paid out of it. County Treasurer Anne Melton was authorized to issue the check for the completed work. Bullock seconded the motion. After a roll call vote, the motion passed unanimously. — Morphew made a motion the fiscal court hire Melton as the county treasurer for a term of four years, effective July 1, 2015. Bullock seconded the motion. Johnston mentioned the job of county treasurer was the only job the magistrates put up for hire. All other county employees are put up for hire by the judge-executive. After a roll call vote, the motion passed unanimously. — Since the beginning of the year, there has been a sign-up sheet for the names of citizens who want to speak at the fiscal court meetings. During the last several months, there has been some contention about having to sign-up before the meeting to be able to speak after it. Barnes made a motion the fiscal court do away with the sign-up sheet and let anyone who wanted to speak at the end of the meeting speak. Morphew seconded the motion. During discussion, Barnes said he’d seen no issues with people speaking before the sign-up sheet was enforced and didn’t foresee any future problems. Johnston said the sign-up sheet was used to help keep order during the meetings. Barnes didn’t believe the court had any issues keeping order. Both Small and Bullock agreed there were no issues keeping order during the meeting, but they would like to be able to revisit the issue of a sign-up sheet if keeping order does become a problem. After a roll call vote, the motion passed by a 5-1 vote. Johnston was the lone no vote.
