February 23, 1983 ADVISORY BOARD OF HEALTH MEETING MINUTES The Advisory Board of Health met at the Paris -Lamar County Health Unit on Wednesday, February 16, 1983, at 7:30 P.M. The following members were present: Mr. James Deatherage, Chairman, Dr. Don Massey, Dr. Wallace Kraft, Mrs. Ann Norment, and Mrs. Frances Ellis. Those not present were: Dr. Charles McMillan, Dr. Rick Casey, and Dr. Richard Bercher. The meeting was to discuss the revision of the budget for the last half of the budget year. The reasons that the last part of the budget was changed was because Mrs. Kennedy, our Clerk III, is being paid thru funds sent to the Health Unit for her State Based Salary. The funds which were released by this, are to be used in the salaries of the locally paid employees to bring them up to a State Based Pay. Dr. Hillhouse pointed out that the State Based Pay for local employees helped to give them enough salary and reduce the discontent that would have been, generally, if this had not been done. It was pointed out that the local employees in the Health Unit on State Base Pay, while getting what appears to be a higher salary are, actually, re- ceiving a lower amount than the City and County workers, because of the fringe benefits and retirement. The total budget for u/y 1, 1982 thru June 30, xaarkry 1983 was $115,032.00. The first half of the budget spent was $57,516.00 allocated to it. Our request in the second half of the budget was $58,442.00. The second half, therefore, is going to cost $926.00 more. This difference will be made up from the Health Unit's bank balance and will cost neither the City nor the County one penny more than they have pledged to pay.
