ATTESTED `t Contact: PHIL BATCHELOR,CLERK OF THE BOARD OF cc: See Page 2 SUPERVISORS AND COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR BY ,DEPUTY I .O.-9 -2- Meetings with Employee Organizations : Ms . Hoffman noted that staff had met with the employee organizations and Supervisor McPeak for three hours on Friday, November 19, 1993 to provide an overview on the service integration project. There are still a number of questions that need to be answered. Another meeting has been scheduled for December 8,1993, at which time staff will describe how the various members of the team will interact with each other and how a case will be handled. It is clear that a good deal of additional discussion is needed and that, as a result, the March implementation may be too optimistic, although staff will still try to achieve that goal . Jim Hicks suggested that there is a need for role-playing at the December 8 meeting. He claimed that information he was given at the November 19 meeting conflicted with what was said at the October 25, 1993 Internal Operations Committee meeting although no specific details were provided. He indicated he was still confused about what Phase I of the Project was and how long it would last. He also asked that the agenda for the December 8 meeting include a description of the impact of the project on the individual employee. It was agreed that the members of the Internal Operations Committee would meet with the employee organizations and staff on Tuesday, December 14, 1993 at 7 : 30 A.M. to review the progress which has been made in the meet and confer sessions as a result of the December 8 meeting. Policy Academy: Ms . Hoffman noted that the application was submitted on time. It was jointly signed by the Chair of the Board of Supervisors, the County Superintendent of Schools and the Superintendents of the West County and Mt. Diablo School Districts . It is anticipated that the State will make a decision on the applications by December 16, 1993 . Application for Funds : Ms . Hoffman noted that a request has been submitted for $40,000 in Keller Canyon Landfill Mitigation Fee funds to upgrade the Bay Point site for the Service Integration Project. One meeting has been held with the Finance Committee to review all of the pending requests . Further consideration of all requests has been deferred until December 6, 1993 .
