Chairperson Kline called for approval of the August 6, 2010 Special Meeting Minutes.
Motion Second Vote
: Kniep; : Herman; : Unanimous.
Each member, in turn, was given the opportunity to discuss their concern(s) or point of
view with regards to the possible combining of health departments. More than one
member mentioned the need for stipulations, concrete numbers, and solid answers to
questions/concerns that have been raised.
As a representative of the state, Dennis Hibray was able to clarify the two options facing
the Board; maintain the City health department, or disband the City health department. A
decision to disband would be irrevocable.
It was decided that each Board member would email Mary Capen the questions or
concerns they would like answers to so that a combined list could be compiled and
answers could be obtained. Chairperson Kline hopes to schedule a special meeting in
September to continue discussion on a possible merger.
