r <br /> inance Committee Minutes <br /> ugust 15, 1989 <br /> age 5. <br /> Mr. Sullivan also noted the need for money in .a Personnel Wage Account. <br /> arilyn noted that a person working 16 hours a week would cost approximately <br /> $5,500. Finance Committee informed Personnel that this would have to be an <br /> Article on the November Warrant. <br /> Another current Personnel issue is employee physicals. These physicals <br /> are currently required by contract. However employees are not satisfied with <br /> the physicals given by Dr. Silva, Physicals are currently required for <br /> employees of the police, fire and DPW departments. Fire Chief Ridgeway proposed <br /> that physicals be given every other year and have a more in—depth physical <br /> including a chest x—ray and EKG. Marilyn noted that they are currently working <br /> on figures for this proposal and that the current physicals are not covered <br /> under Blue Cross. Carole express concern about waiting two years between <br /> physical exams citing that high blood pressure can occur overnight and should <br /> be checked more frequently than every two years. Mr. Sullivan noted that <br /> people are not showing up for their appointments at Dr. Silva's office. <br /> John Ferriday stated that if this is part of the contractual agreement and <br /> they unjustifiable miss an appointment they shouldn't get paid. <br /> Jim Vaccaro informed the Committee that there is a problem with the Beach <br /> -Supervisor , Mark Mason. There appears to be a shortfall in the account <br /> and he was told to cut back on the life guards. It appears at present that <br /> there will be enough money to get through the year and money to start off with <br /> next year. This shortfall is attributable to the $14 an hour given to the <br /> guards when they are working in the capacity of swimming instructors. Jim <br /> also noted another shortfall in the playground account. It seems that last <br /> year Executive Secretary Murphy found $3,000 '�,o get them through„ so they <br /> assumed that they again had $5,000 rather than $2,000. Jim noted that a <br /> new Leisure Services Director had been hired and he would have to assess the <br /> situation. <br /> The Board Secretary was asked to contact the Fire Chief and ask him to <br /> attend the next meeting to discuss the Building Needs Study. She was also <br /> requested to contact Marilyn Farren of Personnel and ask her to attend the <br /> next meeting to discuss further the Personal Service Contracts. <br /> The next meeting is scheduled for September 26th at 7 p.m. The meeting <br /> adjourned at 10:35 p.m. <br /> Gail McNabb <br /> Board Secretary <br />
