Description
Special Meeting to meet with Slavin Management Consultants on qualities for the next County Manager. This meeting took place on Oct. 11, 2018. To view future meeting agendas please visit buncombecounty.org/commissioners.
A
B
Mr.
chairman
and
members
of
the
board,
I'm
Bob,
sleeve
and
I,
think
we
met
most
of
you.
The
last
time
I
was
here,
but
my
colleague
Barbara
Lipscomb,
who
has
Intel
about
a
year
ago,
been
the
city
manager
of
Greenville,
North,
Carolina
and
prior
to
that
other
places
I'm
very
proud
to
have
her
with
me.
The
my
need
for
in
this
meeting
is
to
hear
from
you
rather
than
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
talking.
B
I
have
drafted
a,
and
this
is
a
draft
of
an
add,
an
announcement
which
I'm
the
confident
needs
some
adjustment,
and
it
will
and
will
be
adjusted
based
on
what
I
hear
from
you
today
and
any
and
I'll
like
to
pass
it
out
and
II
thought
you
have
about
that.
That
you
want
to
spend
some
time
with
write
and
make
comments
about,
and
getting
back
to
me
is
fine
too,
but
once
this
is
approved,
the
Job
Description
is
approved.
B
We're
off
and
running
in
addition
to
a
job
description,
you'll
see
a
recruitment
profile
which
is
a
more
glossy
multi-page
that
has
a
lot
of
graphics
and
in
it,
but
the
basis
of
it.
If
this
information
in
the
job
description
is
correct
and
the
information
and
the
recruitment
profile
will
be
correct
and
vice
versa,
so
it
anyway
I'd
also
like
to
pass
that
out
and
for
your
thoughts.
B
One
of
the
things
is
very
clear
to
me:
is
that
what
you
folks
have
establish
a
qualifications
you've
designated
in
a
county
manager
and
the
responsibilities
that
are
assigned
to
that
job
are
highly
consistent
with
what
county
managers
do
and
with
what
I
think
you
need
those
documents
as
far
as
I'm
concerned,
describe
the
job
very
well
and
describe
the
qualifications
of
individuals
who
would
be
qualified
to
do
the
job.
That's
all
easy
to
figure
out,
and
it's
easy
to
figure
out
when
people
submit
resumes
whether
they
meet
that
criteria
or
not.
B
What's
far
more
important
is
the
software
elements
of
what
will
make
this
job
successful,
how
the
person
fits
into
and
their
style
and
personality
and
leadership
characteristics
fit
into
this
culture?
The
culture
of
this
organization
are
critical
to
the
success
of
an
outcome
of
this
process
and
I'd
like
to
have
you
folks
share
whatever
thoughts
you
might
have
about
what
might
fit
this
this
organization
in
terms
of
some
of
those
soft
skills?
In
other
words,
what
they
do
is
pretty
key.
Obviously,
information
I
have
how
they
do
it.
B
B
How
you,
what
your
thoughts
you
have
about,
what
kind
of
characteristics
should
bring
the
best
out
of
your
staff?
Those
are
the
types
of
things
that
I'd
like
you
to
address.
I've
got
compensation,
information
and
I've
got
benefit
information,
and
on
that
subject,
less
I
fail
to
say
it.
We
know
it's
been
our
experience
that
if
we
advertise
these
jobs
with
no
numbers,
but
rather
just
have
a
pretty
good
idea,
what
you're
willing
to
do
and
then
I'll
get
folks
who
are
qualified
to
respond.
B
It
works
better.
If
we
put
a
number
out
there,
there's
too
low
you
won't.
People
who
you
might
otherwise
be
willing
to
afford
won't
apply.
If
you
put
a
number
out
there,
that's
too
high.
That's
the
only
number
anybody's
going
to
see
so
I'd
rather
do
the
way
that
I
just
suggested
so
I.
Don't
we
don't
need
to
spell
office
I'm
talking
about
compensation
unless
you've
got
some
thoughts.
You
want
to
share
with
me
about
that.
B
The
if
you've
got
any
thoughts
about.
If
you
know
people
you
think,
might
be
qualified
for
this
job,
but
that
you
think
might
be
worth
us
contacting
a
lot
of
the
work
we
do
and
recruiting
in
the
recruitment
phase
of
this
is
knocking
on
doors.
You
can
either
share
those
names
with
me
by
email
or
by
phone.
B
However,
you
wanted,
or
through
George,
probably
not
good
to
do
it
at
a
public
meeting,
but
any
thought
you
have
about
that
would
be
extremely
important
to
me.
It's
part
of
the
networking
we
do
so
with
your
permission,
I
would
like
to
be
quiet
and
get
and
have
you
folks
share
with
me
some
things
that
you
think
I
want
at
you.
That
would
be
helpful
for
us
to
know.
As
we
begin
this
process.
B
You're
going
to
do
it
that
way,
that
would
be
helpful
to
us.
One
of
the
reasons
we
do
it.
That
way
is
we
ask
questions,
get
answers
for
know,
we're
getting
answers
to
our
questions,
but
we
run
the
risk
of
never
hearing,
never
giving
you
the
opportunity
to
tell
us
what's
on
your
mind.
So
rather
do
that
and
then
back
so
with
questions.
A
B
Community
attributes
things
that
would
make
that
maybe
people
who've
been
here
would
know,
know
the
county
would
know,
but
people
who
we
might
who
might
be
interested
in
this
job
and
qualified
for
who
have
never
been
here.
What
types
of
things
you
think
would
be
make
this
an
attractive
opportunity
for
somebody
like
encourage
them
to
move
here
and
to
accept
this
job.
C
We're
still
trying
to
figure
out
in
the
long
run
what
we
do
need.
You
know
and
I
think
some
of
us
have
seen
pretty
well.
We
do
need
in
an
accounting
manager
since
George's
come
on
board,
but
you
know
everybody's
got
their
own
opinion
so,
but
the
community
deal
right
now
we
tried
it
it
just
far
as
I'm
concerned.
You
just
fell
through
and
that's
the
way.
I
look
at
that
part
of
it.
We.
E
Let
me
let
me
let
me
take
a
shot
at
this
and
I'll
also
pull
commissioner
friars
in
end
of
this
also
I
think
one
of
the
reasons
that
when
we
put
out
that
we're
hiring
a
hiring
and
county
manager-
and
we
want
input-
we
don't
get
a
lot
of-
we
haven't
been
getting
a
lot
of
people
that
would
come
to
those
meetings
and
that
may
not
be
different
than
a
lot
of
communities.
So
if
I
could
take
that,
maybe
translate
that
into
entire
community.
E
E
You
know
discovering
why
they
came
here.
A
lot
of
people
are
really
busy
protecting
here,
trying
to
keep
others
from
coming
and
changing
here,
and
so
that's
going
on.
You
know
people
are
busy
they're
going
to
work.
They're
going
to
church
they're
there
raising
kids
they're
trying
to
do
the
best
that
they
can
and
I
and
I
say
that,
because
it's
probably
not
a
lot
different
than
some
other
growing.
E
You
know
bigger
cities
in
the
state
of
North
Carolina
that
are
stretching
and
trying
to
find
out.
You
know
how
attractive
are
they
how
attractive
should
they
be?
What
assets
do
they
have
you
know
what
assets
do
they
want
to
add?
You
know
that's
very
complicated,
so
a
county
manager
needs
to
know
that
and
my
opinion
County
manager
you
know,
has
to
be
able
to
go
out.
If
they
don't
know
anything
about
Buncombe
County
in
Buncombe,
County
is
beyond
Asheville.
Asheville
is
a
integral
part
of
Buncombe
County.
E
It's
it's
the
it's
the
big
city,
you
know
in
Buncombe,
County,
it's
it's
it's
where
a
lot
of
drawl
and
the
advertising
that
causes
people
to
come
here
mentions
the
city
of
Asheville
and
not
as
much
but
we
kind
of,
however,
the
assets
that
that
go
beyond
entertainment
or
beyond
the
city.
When
we
look
to
the
West,
we
look
to
the
east,
we
see
the
mountains,
we
see
all
those
things,
but
between
and
I
was
talking
to
my
about
some
of
the
smaller
towns.
E
Some
of
the
the
you
know,
I,
was
in
a
couple
of
small
I,
was
told
about
Swannanoa
this
week
because
Toma
Candler
this
week,
I
was
talking
about
with
with
with
friends
and
contest's
constituents,
and
you
know
they
were
explaining
to
me
that
you
know
the
the
the
unusual
needs
of
were
those
that
don't
have
as
much
as
others
live
and,
in
my
opinion,
a
great
county
management.
We
could
have
a
good
county
manager,
but
a
great
county
manager
would
would
would
learn
the
personality
of
the
county.
E
The
the
I
was
talking,
somebody
about
the
difference
between
we've
revealed
in
Marshall,
and
you
know
Marshalls
in
another
County.
But
it's
not
unlike
what
what's
happening
in
Marshall
is
not
unlike
what
happens
a
little
bit
over
time
in
West,
Asheville
or
what's
happening
in
little
areas
and
Candler.
You
got
young
people
coming
in,
and
different
things
are
happening
and,
and
I
can
talk
a
lot
on
this
stuff.
E
E
D
E
In
the
country
it's
one
of
the
most
beautiful
places
in
the
world,
that's
one
of
the
one
of
the
challenging
assets
as
we
deal
with
as
we
deal
with
with
roads,
we
don't
we
do
not,
you
know,
put
in
roads
and
infrastructure,
we
deal
with
the
pain
of
it,
and
so
they
got
to
understand
that
this
is
growing
right.
Now,
it's
very
hot
they're
going
to
come
into
a
market
that
you
know
where
we're
dealing
with
calls
all
the
time
about.
What
are
you
gonna
do
about
the
traffic?
What
you
gonna
do
about
the
building.
E
What
are
you
gonna
do
about
and
it
didn't
matter
where
it
doesn't
matter
where
you
go,
you
know
you
know,
and
we
have.
We
have
challenges.
We
have
so
much
traffic
and
a
lot
of
people
in
a
hurry,
and
you
know
and
I
was
to
coming
here
this
afternoon.
I
hit
one
red
light
coming
from
camera.
That
was
awesome.
Just
one
thanks
for
jumping
in
there
I
know.
G
G
H
What
I'd
like
to
do
is
just
talk
about
you
know.
What
you
want
to
hear
is,
if
we're
talking
as
somebody
who's
moving
in
the
Buncombe
County
wanting
to
tell
them
the
advantages
of
coming
in
in
the
county
and
I'll
just
put
on
my
bankers
at
the
pool,
because
that
was
part
of
my
job
talking
to
recruiting
before
I
retired
people
to
come
here
and
I
would
always
start
by
talking
about
the
quality
of
life
in
Buncombe.
County
were
fortune.
It
is
a
good
place
to
live.
You
know,
when
you
look
at
our
education
system.
H
If
you
have
kids,
we
have
two
excellent
education
systems
in
the
city,
school
system
and
the
county
school
system,
health
care.
We
have
yeah
mission
hospital
has
been
in
for
the
last
five
years,
or
so
the
top
15
hospitals
in
the
country
and
even
though
now
they're
in
process
of
selling
it
to
for-profit
but
I,
don't
think
that
will
hurt
the
health
care
in
the
area
at
all
because
we'll
be
getting
a
the
gold.
H
The
foundation
that
they
have
created
from
the
sale
of
our
hospital
will
be
around
two
billion
dollars
and
generate
50
million
a
year.
You
know
in
the
footprint
and
then
when
you
look
at,
we
have
to
tell
them
in
this
county.
It's
from
you
know
you
hear
about
Asheville
all
over
the
world.
You
know
we
win.
If
we
were
in
when
I
was
in
Beijing
China
people
knew
about
Asheville
or
in
Ireland
wherever
you
go
they
know
about.
H
But
the
one
thing
people
need
to
understand
about
this
county
is
that
we
go
from
one
extreme
to
the
other.
We
don't
have
all
super
rich
here.
We
have
very
poor
people
to
you
and
that's
what
I
wish
more
people
understood
in
Raleigh
and
they
don't
but
I
think
this
is
you
know
and
when
you
look
at
that,
you
have
to
tell
that
a
lot
depends
on,
especially
though
I'd
like
to
go
back
to
the
quality
of
life,
because
it's
a
good
place
to
live.
H
When
you
look
at
the
environment,
the
mountains,
where
we
are
with
nowhere
from
Charlotte
Knoxville
Tennessee
Greenville,
South
Carolina,
Atlanta
Georgia,
it's
all
fine,
but
when
talking
to
the
note
I
think
it's
always
good
to
make
it
clear
that
the
cost
of
living
here
is
not
the
cheapest.
You
know
you
pay
for
the
lifestyle
here.
The
quality
of
living
but
I
think
that's
one
of
the
keys.
You
know
it's
easy
and
especially
at
the
level
we're
looking
at
for
county
managing
what
will
be
paid,
what
the
county
manager
will
be
paid.
H
B
F
H
The
one
thing
I
hope
we
don't
get
caught
up
in
rounds
on
the
school
board.
We
made
this
mistake
and
took
it
for
granted.
Let's
make
sure
that
the
new
county
manager
understand,
we
expect
them
to
live
in
Buncombe
County.
Yes,
you
know
we
don't
want
to
come
in
here,
looking
at
McDowell
or
one
of
the
other
counties,
because
it's
cheaper
to
live
there
and
you
know
and
in
close
proximity,
but
you
know
we
expect
them
as
taxpayers
to
be
tax.
Pedes.
H
J
I
echo
a
lot
of
what's
been
said
just
about
how
amazing
this
community
is,
and
beautiful
and
I
think
you
know.
One
thing
that
stands
out
to
me
about
Buncombe
County
is
just
sort
of
wherever
folks
are
in
their
life
cycle.
There's
a
lot
of
resources
and
opportunities
here.
So
if
there's
someone
with
younger
kids
or
kids,
who
are
still
in
the
k-12
systems,
yeah,
you
know
great
public
schools.
If
it's
folks
who
are
kind
of
maybe
this
is
the
last
chapter
before
retirement.
J
Of
course,
the
natural
environment
is,
you
know,
an
incredible
and
important
part
of
this
community
and
attracts
a
lot
of
people
here
for
different
reasons
in
terms
of
Buncombe
County,
specifically,
a
couple
of
things
that
jump
out
to
me
are
one
the
the
the
strength
of
the
county
staff.
It's
you
know
about
1,500
people
strong
and
in
some
some
ways
that
have
been
very
publicly
recognized
like
innovations
around
the
Family
Justice
Center,
the
justice
Resource
Center.
There's
a
lot
of
really
innovative.
The
policy
work
and
programming,
work
happening
and
I.
J
Think
someone
who
is
excited
by
that
and
also
you
know,
excited
to
see
staff
grow
into
their
leadership
and
have
room
to
room
to
lead
is
a
kind
of
leadership
style
that
would
that
would
this
would
be
someone
who's
be
joining
some
initiatives
that
already
have
some
great
momentum
and
sort
of
wind
that
they're
back
building
on
that
I
think
this
is,
you
know,
looking
for
candidates,
who'd
be
excited
about
the
strategic
priorities
that
this
board
has
identified.
We
passed
a
slate
of
them
last
winter.
J
That
kind
of
have
prioritized
that
types
of
issues
were
working
on,
whether
it's
supporting
early
childhood
education,
development
or
responding
to
the
opioid
crisis,
or
you
know
it's
or
working
around
economic
development,
especially
around
those
communities
that
are
not
experiencing
sort
of
the
prosperity
of
this
moment.
So
someone
who's
going
to
not
just
be
passionate
about
that
and
excited
about
working
with
a
bipartisan
Commission
on
that,
but
also
bring
ideas
to
the
table
around.
How
do
you
go
from?
We've
got
to
respond
to
the
opioid
crisis.
J
We
want
to
actually
be
looking
at
some
concrete
strategies
and
how
to
implement
them
and
doing
that
and
then
I
would
just
you
know,
I,
just
because
I
think
it
bears
repeating.
Is
you
know,
there's
there's.
This
is
true
in
any
community,
but
I
think
especially
true
here,
there's
there's
what
people's
daily
experience
like
is
like,
as
community
members
is
dictated
so
much
by
the
circumstances
of
the
zip
code
they
were
born
in,
and
we
knows
more
specifically
in
Buncombe
County,
often
by
the
color
of
people's
skin.
K
A
couple
of
the
things
I
look
at
I've,
been
here
59
years
myself
and
I
Whitesides
been
here,
our
whole
life
I
think
what
we
got
to
look
at
if
someone's
got
thick
skin,
because
no
matter
what
the
outcome
is
here.
They're
gonna
reflect
it
back
on
the
past.
If
it
don't
go
the
way
they
want
it,
they're
gonna
say
well:
we've
got
a
county
manager
just
like
we
had
or
boy.
This
is
great.
You
know
somebody's
got
to
make
this
decision
here
or
we've
got
to
make
the
decision,
but
the
county
manager
is
gonna.
K
Take
blame
on
a
lot
of
the
thing.
The
challenge
that
they've
got
is
going
to
be.
It's
they're
gonna
reflect
on
the
past
for
the
next
five
years.
No
matter
who
it
is,
the
history
here
is
so
big
in
Asheville.
You
know:
I
was
born
here
in
the
50s,
so
the
changes
from
the
60s,
the
70s,
the
80s,
you
know
so
want
them
to
be
prepared
for
the
future,
because
it's
gonna
change
again,
I'm,
saying
it
every
15
years.
We've
got
a
new
clientele
people
coming
in
here
and
they
want
changes.
They
want
it.
K
Like
it
was
where
they
come
from,
that's
one
of
the
things
I
don't
understand
is
why
they
left
the
place
they
did
if
they
want
to
change
us.
If
it
was
so
great,
and
one
thing
I
would
not
like
to
see
is
someone
that's
moving
here
because
they
have
family
members
here.
I
want
them
to
come
here,
because
I
want
them
to
do
what's
best
for
this
county
I.
Don't
want
to
move
in
here
to
be
closer
to
their
family,
or
you
know
say
this
is
a
place.
I
want
to
retire.
K
I
hope
we
find
someone
that
is
young
enough.
That's
got
a
passion
to
want
to
do
this
job
and
make
everyone
accountable.
It's
like
our
manager.
We
have
now
I
want
to
think
about
the
future.
You
know
he
has
laid
a
lot
of
things
out
for
us
to
be
prepared
for
and
in
my
two
years
here
the
other
managers
did
not
tell
us
what
was
coming
in
the
future.
This
one
here
told
us
what
we
should
be
looking
at
if
we're
going
to
keep
this
county
profitable.
A
Mr.
frog,
a
brownie,
okay,
all
right,
well,
I
think
you
probably
don't
have
a
lot
more
to
add.
Maybe
I
would
just
underscore
just
the
you
know
the
observation
that
thing
mr.
Belcher
started
with,
which
is
that
you
know
I
think
in
some
ways
the
Buncombe
County
gets
kind
of
defined
as
as
a
certain
identity.
You
know
overall,
and
you
know
like
any
community,
we
have
our,
you
know,
kind
of
demographic.
You
know
preponderance
--is
and
things
like
that.
But
it
really
is
a.
It
really
is
a
very
diverse
community.
A
A
Over
half
live
outside
the
city
limits
a
lot
of
its
you
know,
within
the
kind
of
urbanized
areas
right
around
the
city
limits,
there's
a
lot
of
folks
there
too,
but
the
you
know.
You
know
the
majority
of
the
people
live
outside
the
city
and
the
majority
of
the
land
itself
is
really.
You
know
fairly.
Rural
got
a
lot
of
National
Forest
here,
just
undeveloped
lands.
So
it's
not.
It's
certainly
not
an.
You
know
an
entirely
urbanized
County.
So
we
got,
we've
got
one
city,
it's
bigger
than
the
others.
A
We've
got
great
small
towns
and
really
a
lot
of
rural
communities
and
population
as
well.
So
we
definitely
want
someone
who
will
be
able
to
relate
to
and
connect
to.
You
know
these
really
distinct
neighborhoods
and
communities
throughout
Buncombe
County
and
everybody.
We
want
this
to
be
someone
who
folks
will
look
at
everyone
will
be
able
to
say,
I
relate
to
that
person.
They
get
what
our
issues
and
concerns
are,
and
but
it's
really
but
part
part.
What
makes
the
community
such
an
interesting
place
is
it's.
A
You
know
it's
not
a
city,
you
know
it's
not
just
you
know
a
rural
area.
It's
gonna
really
got
this
very
kind
of
diverse
mix
of
kind
of
urban
and
rural
communities
throughout
it
so
and
they're
all
they're.
All
adding
a
lot
to
what
this
place
is
about.
B
A
It's
about
a
liberal
third
is
in
Nashville,
the
other
small
towns.
I
think
don't
add
up
to
a
third.
It
was
probably
a
little
over
a
third
lives
in
unincorporated
areas.
You
know
a
little
under
a
third
lives
in
the
other
small
towns
in
the
county
and
then
about
a
third
lives
in
the
city
of
Asheville
itself.
A
So
you
know
the
other
meanness
of
how
the
who
do
live
in
municipalities,
of
course,
get
a
lot
of
different
direct
services
from
the
municipalities
that
they
live
in,
but
a
lot
of
the
county's
services
in
terms
of
working
with
the
Sheriff's
Department,
Health
and
Human
Services,
you
know,
are
either
countywide
or
were
in
some
ways,
maybe
even
more
important
to
the
folks
who
live
in
unincorporated
areas
because
they
don't
have
any
municipality
to.
You
know
to
look
to
right.
G
B
D
C
E
G
To
what
Commissioner
fryer
was
saying
about
people
not
coming
I,
think
you
know,
one
of
the
problem
is
it's.
What
Joe
is
saying
as
well,
but
I
think
a
lot
of
people
don't
feel
one
they're
busy
for
two
I.
Don't
think
I
think,
sadly,
I
don't
think
they
think
it
matters
and
I,
don't
think
it's
just
for
Buncombe
County,
but
I
think
they
don't
think
their
opinion
matters.
G
B
G
The
biggest
crowd
we
ever
had
here,
what,
if
it
was
about
national
national
forests
and
a
big
ivy
and
we've
never
any,
and
all
we
were
doing,
is
signing
a
proclamation
to
send
to
Congress
to
not
log
in
this
forest,
but
I
don't
think.
We've
ever
had
as
many
people
show
up
to
anything
as
we
did
for
that
swimming.
E
J
E
Was
gonna
say
that
there's
some
also
whoever
comes
here
is
got
to
understand
the
the
topography
of
Buncombe
County
and
the
challenges
associated
with
that?
Okay,
if
they're
coming
from
a
county-
and
this
may
sound
so
obvious-
but
it's
but
it's
really
not
if
they're
coming
from
somewhere.
That's
lat.
Okay,.
D
E
Left
the
Candler
Tuesday
night
to
go
to
Beulah
Baptist
Church
on
North
Turkey
Creek
in
Leicester.
It
took
me
44
minutes.
If
Ida
had
a
helicopter.
I
could
have
been
there
in
three
minutes
because
there
was
there's
just
no
easy
way
to
get
there.
So
because
of
that,
you
have
you
have
challenges
the
MS.
You
have
challenges
with
providing
services.
You
have
chat,
you
have
you
have
to
have.
D
E
E
You
know
it
creates
little
little
pockets
of
poverty
because
it's
farther
out
there
than
you
think
you
know,
and
and
people
can't
get
their
trash
somewhere
and
they
had
ends
up
on
the
side
of
the
road,
just
different
things
like
that,
but
they
got
it.
You
know
and
I'll
say
this:
you
know
that
we've
had
a
lot
of
people,
that
you
know,
move
to
Buncombe,
County
and
I'm,
not
against
what
I'm
getting
ready
to
say,
but
you
know
they're,
you
know
you
come
out
of
Miami
and
you
wanted.
E
You
wanted
to
invest
a
lot
of
money
in
that
County
or
you
want
to
invest
a
lot
of
money
in
greenways.
It's
a
little
different
here.
You
know
and
doing
the
math
and
people
got
to
understand
that
and
they
got
to
be
able
to
talk
through
that
advocated
for
and
be
able
to
to
listen
to
the.
Why?
Behind
concerns
with
folks,
its
are
not
against
everything.
There's
just
there's
just
a
why
there
and
we're
different.
The
topography
is
different.
That's
what
makes
us
gorgeous
creates
challenges.
E
H
F
C
L
H
They've
got
gotta
have
a
style
where
they
can
communicate
with
everybody.
It's
the
millionaires
and
Biltmore
forests
or
it's
the
people
who
live
in
places
like
Broad,
River
and
sandy
mush
I.
Think
that's.
The
key
are
the
people
who
live
in
Nashville,
you
know,
which
is
our
metropolitan
area,
but
you
need
somebody
who
is
good
at
communicating
with
people
and
who
comes
across
is
being
genuine.
Not
you
know
as
artificial
and
trying
to
you
know
fit
in.
You
know
it's
somebody
who
naturally,
it
got
to
be
good
with
people
if
they're
gonna
survive
here,
yeah.
H
G
E
I
have
not
had
enough
coffee,
but
well
a
really
good
leader
at
whatever
level.
If
a
phone
call
comes
in
to
their
office,
they
are
not
afraid
to
pick
that
phone
up
and
go.
This
is
so-and-so
county
manager
right
because
we
do
that
in
our
office.
If
we're
in
you're
here
in
our
office,
I,
don't
think
there's
any
any
commissioner
here
that
will
push
the
default
button
and
let
that
go
to
voicemail.
E
We
will
pick
that
phone
up
and
answer
that
and
yes,
as
you
know,
grounding
them
in
you
know:
Chairman
whatever
a
great
county
manager
will
pick
that
up.
They'll
tell
the
problem
and
they'll
listen
to
the
problem,
and
then
after
they've
heard
the
problem,
then
they
will.
Then
they
will
move
that
to
the
proper
Department
instead
of
moving
it
to
the
Department
before
they
even
listen
to
the
problem,
you
get
a
really
great
leader
will
listen
to
the
problem.
Take
the
time
to
take
that
call
and
then
take
it
to
the
department
instead
of
well.
E
D
E
B
J
J
One
came
up
at
our
last
meeting
relates
to
the
sale
of
Mission
Hospital,
the
HCA
and
there's
going
to
be
the
creation
of
a
foundation
that
will
serve
18
counties
across
the
region
and
opportunities
for
a
coordinated
and
collaboration
collaboration
will
approach
both
within
Buncombe
County
municipalities,
but
also
with
surrounding
counties.
I
think
is
key
in
that,
so
someone
who's
kind
of
can
read
the
landscape
around
that
and
have
those
relationships
in
place,
and
then
another
piece
is
that
around
some
issues,
Buncombe
County
also
plays
a
regional
role,
and
the
opioid
crisis
comes
to
mind.
J
D
J
So
it's
a
medical
hub
for
the
region
so
to
summa
ZUP
in
a
lot
of
different
ways
when
we
think
about
the
ways
that
local
services
are
taxed
and
strained,
and
also
the
responsibility
we
have
to
our
neighboring
counties
in
responding
to
a
crisis
that
you
know.
Many
of
these
are
counties
that
don't
have
the
resources
from
their
tax
base
to
have
a
standalone
maternal
health
clinic
for
women
during
pregnancy
who
are
using.
J
B
J
It's
not
that
Buncombe
County
necessarily
is
providing
the
services
but
agency
that
you
work
with
closely
like
RHA,
which
does
mental
health
services
or
Mission
Hospital.
They
are
absorbing
and
providing
those
services.
So
it's
training
systems
that
are
based
here
that
we
are
we're
funding
for
the
Buncombe
part
of
the
provision.
But
when
you
sort
of
look
at
it
through
systems
lens,
those
pieces
are
connected.
I.
C
C
We've
gone
through
a
lot
with
Miss,
Green
and
Mandy
and
Creighton,
and
the
whole
package,
so
George
was
a
benefit.
Force
still
is,
but
we
have
to
be
careful
as
aborting
ourselves.
That's
the
way,
I
look
at
it.
Three
of
these
people
were
not
part
of
the
board.
When
some
of
this
stuff
went
down
truthfully,
there
was
four
of
us
that
were
and
but
I
got
an
email
today
from
a
lady
beat
me
up
over
a
VTEC
big
time.
C
D
C
Pretty
well
talked
to
the
lady
and
told
her
that
the
information
that
mr.
bruckman
got
was
from
me
part
of
this
county
because
I'm
a
trustee
over
there,
so
she
she
finally
got
a
little
bad
I
said
it.
It's
not
all
this
here,
but
the
way
they
laying
it
out
it's
their
beat
and
stuff
and
actually
showed
these
people,
or
is
that
with
that
that
stuff?
So
we
have
to
be
careful,
we
have
to
think
really
hard
and
you
know
am.
L
C
The
smartest
no
person
it
takes
me
more
than
15
minutes
to
make
any
kind
of
decision
and
I'm.
Listening
to
my
other,
the
six
of
us
here,
there's
seven
of
us
total
and
I'm
less
than
aisle
six
of
them,
mr.
frost
across
some
good
stuff
forward.
So
it's
Joe
so
view
brand.
We
have
to
look
at
different
areas.
C
C
A
I
think
initially
initially
there's
you
know,
definitely
sort
of
a
make
sure
we're
doing
the
core
job
piece
to
it
for
sure.
But,
as
you
know,
I
think
is
again.
Joe
mentioned
I
mean
it
is
a
change
in
community,
so
we're
definitely
gonna
want
someone
who
is
gonna,
be
thinking
about.
You
know
this
isn't
future
the
county
is
gonna,
look
very
different
and
ten
years
twenty
years
than
it
does
today,
and
we
want
those
to
be
mostly
good
changes.
A
You
know,
and
so
I
think
it's
gonna,
you
know
someone
who's
gonna
be
excited
about
working
in
a
county
that
has
got
a
lot
of
the
benefits
of
change,
but
also
the
pains
of
you
know.
The
growth
pains
that
naturally
go
along
with
that
too.
So
I
think
we
do
want
someone,
you
know.
I
would
add
that
could
be
Jasman
said
earlier.
You
know
we
want
someone
who
I
think
part
of
what's
part
of.
A
What's
neat
about
this
opportunity
is
that
Buncombe
County
is
a
very
innovative
community,
and
so
this
is
a
place
where
a
county
manager
can
do
things
that
are
really
far
we're
looking
and-
and
maybe
haven't
been
done
everywhere
else
before
so
it's
a
community,
that's
willing
to
and
really
I
think
is
looking
to
county
government
to
do
things
to
try
to
get
ahead
of
the
issues.
So
it's
a
place
where,
if
someone's
finds
that
exciting
from
a
policy
and
management
standpoint,
this
is
this
could
be
a
really
interesting
job.
I
think.
H
They've
got
to
be
a
visionary,
that's
what's
critical,
because
I
can
tell
you
from
being
here
and
working
in
banking.
Here
for
40
years,
we've
been
fortunate.
The
way
Buncombe
County
has
grown,
but
going
forward.
We
are
going
to
have
to
make
sure
we
do
a
better
job
of
planning
and
that's
all
governments
in
Buncombe
County,
because
if
we
want
to
keep
the
quality
of
life
that
we
have,
it's
not
going
to
happen
by
the
seat
of
our
pants,
we've
got
a
plan
for
it.
H
We've
got
to
look
at
new
ways
of
doing
things,
I
think
that's
going
to
be
critical
and
in
doing
that,
we've
got
to
look
at,
and
this
is
where
I
think
a
visionary
in
place.
A
person
who's.
That
way,
because
in
doing
these
things,
we're
gonna
also
have
to
look
at
controlling
costs
too,
and
all
that
comes
into
play.
You
know-
and
we've
got
to
think
of
when
you
look
at
our
initiatives:
affordable,
housing,
what
we're
doing
with
the
justice
system,
education,
all
the
major
things
that
we
wanted,
that
on
our
plate.
H
It's
got
to
be
somebody
who's,
a
visionary
who
can
guide
us
to
where
we
need
to
go
and
give
us.
You
know
what
we
need.
We
just
can't.
We
can't
have
somebody
coming
in
who
who's
going
to
keep
things
the
way
they
are
and
I.
Think
that's
what
one
of
the
to
me
was
one
of
the
disappointing
things
being
new
on
the
commission
is
when
I
came
in
and
found
out
that
more
or
less
it
was
self
preservation.
H
Here
you
know
it
was
we
had
a
leadership
team
that
appeared
to
me
that
it
was
what
they
could
get
out
of
the
county,
not
what
they
could
put
in
the
county,
and
you
see
where
we
are,
but
that's
why
I
think
you
know
it's
got
to
be
a
vision
for
somebody
who's.
Looking
ahead,
I
mean
that's
critical
and
we
need
somebody
who's
had
the
experience
with
this
we're
not
looking
for
a
person
who
we
got
to
train
they've
made
the
long-term.
B
J
J
We
don't
know
when
it
ends,
and
this
has
got
to
be
someone
who's
ready
to
get
right
in
that
process
with
us
as
a
commission
to
make
sure
that
we're
kind
of
doing
due
diligence
on
all
the
kind
of
organizational
culture
issues
that
will
need
to
be
addressed
and
someone
who
has
both
enough
vision
and
I
think
enough
leadership,
qualities
that
they
can
help
lead
the
county
and
county
staff
into
its
next
chapter.
So
it's
got
to
be
someone.
G
J
E
G
C
G
B
D
G
C
B
A
Know
I've
been
thinking
about
that
and
I
think
it's
cannot
be
really
curious
to
you
know
when
we
start
talking
to
some
of
the
leading
Canada's
sort
of
what
they
think
about
that
question.
But
my
sense
is
that
when
the
new
county
manager
is
brought
in,
it
may
be
a
little
bit
different
than
what
would
just
be
typical
if
someone
were
just
sort
of
stepping
into
you
kind
of
normal
circumstances
and
County.
A
Interfacing
with
you
know,
other
decision-makers
in
the
community
regular
regular
folks
to
I
think
it's
important
for
people
to
be
able
to
meet
this
person
and
and
kind
of
go
through
that
process
of
helping
the
you
know,
reestablish
trust
with
the
community
and
people
feeling
like,
oh
yeah,
you
know
I've
met
this
person,
the
county
recruited.
They
seem
really
qualified,
they
seem
great,
it's
gonna,
be
you
know,
they're
gonna
do
a
good
job
so,
and
it
may
not
be
that
same
way.
A
G
Think
that's
important
because
in
the
past,
for
instance,
in
the
schools
for
schools,
administrators
were
told
never
to
contact.
Commissioners,
the
fire
departments
were
told
never
to
contact
commissioners,
and
so,
even
though
that
was
at
the
top
level,
like
Franny,
was
saying
that
attitude
trickles
down
to.
B
My
as
I
read
the
some
of
the
material.
We
got
a
particularly
job
description.
The
county
manager
appoints
staff
with
the
approval
of
the
Commission,
as
is
that
accurate
and
then
there's
some
other
language
in
there.
It
goes
on
to
say
that
you
can
you
as
a
the
BOC,
can
waive
that
requirement
and
allow
the
manager
to
hire
and
fire.
Well,
what's
the
situation,
how
are
you
are
you
aware
of.
C
A
Think
the
main
protocol
is,
you
know
for
there's
a
few
key
positions
that
you
know
also
report
to
the
Commission
directly
and
the
manager,
so
a
finance
director,
the
turn
County
Attorney
clerk
and
tax,
but
but
you
know
I
think
for
for
most
of
the
other
departments.
You
know
we
kind
of
view.
Those
as
those
are
the
county
managers,
department,
heads
and
mostly
it's
been
a
process
of
sweetening
I-
think
what
we
look
for
us,
mostly
communication.
How
are
things
going
on
that
updates
on
that?
K
One
thing
I
won't
come
in
here
on
is
the
trust
I
think
our
constituents
want
the
trust
of
a
county
manager,
but
I
think
it's
got
to
start
first
with
in
all
1,500
of
our
county
employees,
because
they
did
not
have
the
trust
they
was
afraid
of
being
moved
somewhere
or
fired,
or
something,
and
you
take
1500
employees
here
with
their
spouse,
their
in-laws
that
could
take
up
25%
of
our
population
here,
so
the
words
gonna
spread.
Yes,
we've
got
a
good
county
manager
now
or
no
we've
got
the
same
thing
again.
K
E
I
think
they
need
to
realize
too
that
they're
going
to
be
in
a
tough
spot
when
it
comes
to
that,
because
if
I
don't
think
the
commissioners
here
will
or
will
overreact,
but
if
this
person
comes
in
then
start
strongarm
and
department
heads
the
communication
is
not
proper.
I
can
tell
you,
probably
the
ones
that's
been
here.
E
You
know
for
a
while.
They
need
to
know
they
not
going
to
be
here.
As
far
as
this
Commissioner
is
concerned,
I'm
sure
others
that
if
we
hear
that
that
is
that
that
culture
is
not
where
it
needs
to
be,
and
that
fear
is
still
there
again.
We
won't
overreact
to
that,
but
there
they're
coming
into
a
situation
where
we've
heard
all
of
that,
and
we
don't
want
to
hear
it
from
a
new
person.
So
they're
gonna
be
they'll,
be
under
the
gun
a
little
bit.
E
You
know
so
to
speak,
I,
think
and
but
somebody
it's
really
good.
It's
going
to
go
in
and
meet
with
the
department
heads
and
you
know,
create
a
create
that
environment
where
they
can
communicate
very
well
and
say:
hey,
you
know,
I,
don't
know
your
department,
I,
don't
know
what
you
know.
You
guys
y'all
running
it
and
you
are
doing
an
incredible
job.
E
B
E
F
E
Time
you
know
we're
sitting
here
at
a
county
manager
can
bring
us
up-to-date
on
what's
going
on.
We
also,
you
know,
have
some
good
good
good
briefings
where
we
get
brought
up
on.
You
know
just
everyday
things
that
are
operational.
That's
very
helpful,
you
know
George,
does
that
and
you
know
we
get,
you
know
McKinnon.
You
can't
have
you
more
than
three
together,
but
those
those
informational
sessions
are
very,
very
helpful.
They're,
not
policy
sessions,
but
they're
very
helpful.
So.
G
E
F
B
F
E
I'd
like
to
be
able
to
walk
in
a
county
manager's
office,
I
have
to
have
enough.
I
have
to
know
I
can't
do
that
all
the
time,
but
I'd
like
an
open
door.
I
want
to
be
able
to
call
I
want
to
be
able
knock
on
the
door.
I
want
to
be
able
to
call
you
know
on
a
Saturday
afternoon,
I'm
not
going
to
do
that.
Unless
there's
something
that's
you
know
you've,
you
know
you've.
You
talked
about
the
face
of
the
community.
Some
people
do
some
people.
E
Do
it
differently,
some
people,
you
know
on
Saturday
afternoon.
You
know
we
could
be
with
constituents
something's
going
on,
it
could
be
and
we
might
need
to
know
something
but
being
accessible,
but
you
know
we're
not
going
to
be
in
there.
You
know
all
the
time
asking
the
bus
questions,
but
they
need
to
know
that
feels
good.
When
you
can
knock
on
the
door
and
say
you
got
a
minute
and
say
well,
I
don't
right
now,
but
it
will
in
an
hour
or
yeah.
H
H
I
don't
have
to
worry
about
hearing
that
later
is
different
from
what
we
talked
about
or
if
I'm
going
to
talk
to
the
manager
that
I
feel
uncomfortable
doing
one
on
one
I
say:
Jay:
let's
go,
you
know
what
you
need
to
get
another
person
with
you
to
make
sure
that
you've
got
a
witness.
You
know
you
don't
need
that
I
mean,
but
hopefully
that
we
won't
have
to
go
through
anything
like
that
with
the
new
edge.
If
we
do
I,
don't
think
that
we,
you
know
we'll.
J
Just
in
terms
of
communication,
you
know
again
we're
sort
of
in
this
climate,
where
we're
all
having
to
do
things
that
aren't
typically
part
of
the
job
responsibilities
in
terms
of
the
investigation,
and
that
does
include
communication.
Styles
in
terms
of
you
know,
someone
I
think
who
has
at
least
until
we're
through
this
period,
who
you
know
who
has
the
experience
or
the
comfort
was
sort
of
some
of
the
crisis.
J
Communications
situations
that
we're
in
in
terms
of
you
know
making
sure
we
all
have
access
to
the
same
information
at
the
same
time,
making
sure
there's
clear
systems
in
place
for
how
Commission
level
communications
will
become
public,
how
Canty
level
communications
will
become
public.
We've
frankly
encountered
a
lot
of
challenges
in
the
last
18
months,
trying
to
just
have
basic
systems
in
place
and
that
and
it's
a
specialized
skill
set.
J
This
doesn't
have
to
be
someone
who's
a
specialist
and
that,
but
someone
who
either
can
help
manage
that
or
can
help
delegate
that
we
have
an
incredible
communications
and
media
team,
but
I
think
again
until
we're
through
this
period.
That
will
continue
to
be
a
sort
of
unique
communication.
Need
I
suspect.
F
F
F
F
E
Know
when
they're
coming
in
you
know
into
February
where
we're
getting
presentations
from
the
schools,
we're
getting
presentation
for
everybody
else.
We
got.
You
know
community
development
grants
we'll
have
40
some
people.
You
know
coming
in.
You
know
petitioning
for
money,
yes
person.
It's
gonna
have
to
be
able
to
navigate
through
that
very
quickly
because
we're
gonna
do
a
budget.
I
mean
a
lot
of
the
works.
Already
going
to
be
done.
You
know
cuz
when
you
open
your
doors.
G
E
And
at
the
same
time,
again,
I
go
back
to
this,
making
sure
that
that
the
department
heads
there's
a
great
relationship.
There
I
think
the
first
obligations
to
the
department
heads
to
the
to
the
county
employees
to
the
team
members
here,
and
they
can
worry
about
the
community
after
that,
because
they've
got
to
hold
this
team
together
they
got
a
you
know:
they
got
it.
They
got
to
make
sure
they
can
do
that
very,
very
well
and
then
not
the
middle
of
a
budget
near
the
you
know
near
the
end.
B
A
You
know
I
really
want
them
to
be
made
aware
of
the
Commission's
strategic
priorities,
some
of
those
cover
areas
that
are
just
kind
of
core
services
for
county
governments,
but
it
also
includes
you
know,
areas
that
are
really
important,
that
aren't
necessarily
just
traditional
County
core
services,
so
we'd
want
someone
to
would
want
we'd
want
the
candidates
to
be
aware
of
all
those-
and
you
know,
here's
some
things
that
governments
are
not
necessarily
required
by
law
to
do,
but
we
think
are
important
in
this
community
and
looking
for
ways
to
make
a
difference.
We'll.
B
Make
that
available
to
them-
and
we'll
may
have
mentioned
when
I
was
here
before
that
part
of
our
vetting
process-
includes
getting
some
substantial
amount
of
additional
written
information.
That's
tied
to
your
preferences
and
needs
not
to
something
that
that
we
pull
off
a
shelf.
So
you'll
have
an
opportunity
to
read
their
responses
to
some
of
that
before
you
choose
to
bring
them
here
for
interviews
and.
H
I
tell
you
what
I
would
like
to
see
them
have
something
that
we
keep
pushing
aside,
but
we
don't
have
to
deal
with
it.
They
need
to
have
some
experience
in
planning
in
zones.
You
know
that's
for
some
people
in
the
county,
a
bad
word,
but
when
you
look
at
here,
you've
got
to
do
that.
The
planning
and
all,
if
you
don't,
it
will
happen
for
you
and
it'll
be
ugly
when
that
happens,
but
I
really
think
we
need
somebody.
H
H
F
E
E
You
open
you
open,
use,
open
use,
okay,
but
what
we
got
to
remember
again,
this
place
isn't
flat.
Okay.
So
when
you
look
at
the
map,
you're
thinking-
oh
my
gosh
look
at
this.
You
know
all
this
is
we're.
Gonna
have
to
get
in
there
and
do
something
about
that.
Well,
some
of
it
you
may,
but
most
of
it
you
won't
because
it's
you
look
it
up
at
it,
I
mean
its
mountains
and
so
it's
different
okay
and
that
creates
that
just
creates
challenges.
I'm
on
the
phone
today.
E
E
And
I
understand
you
know
if
a
apartment
complex
is
going
up
near
near
anybody
in
the
community,
it's
a
concern,
but
what
makes
it
different
from
a
plant
difficult
from
a
planning
and
zoning
is
I'm
not
opposed
to
apartments.
We
just
have
to
be
careful
how
they're
built
when
you're
building
in
the
mountains,
you're
building
on
the
side
of
a
hill
and
you've
got.
You
know
you,
you
have
to
have
erosion
control,
you
have
to
have
these
things
and
they
have
to
understand
that
that
it's
it's
it's.
E
L
A
Talked
about
that
there's
not
currently,
the
different
municipalities
in
the
county
are
really
doing
kind
of
all
doing
their
own
thing.
Sort
of
one
place,
there's
a
little
bit
more,
is
around
some
of
the
transportation
planning
where
some
of
the
different
projects
run,
you
know
run
run
through
multiple
jurisdictions.
We
had
a
and
we
try
to
cooperate
on
some
of
those
infrastructure
projects
like
there
was
a
sidewalk
project
that
Marta
was
in
the
city,
part
of
in
the
county,
and
so
we,
both
you,
know
our
staff
coordinated.
I
I
E
E
We
all
know
and
I
think
you
know
we're
always
going
to
get
in
it,
we're
always
going
to
run
into
the
end
it
into
anything
like
that,
whether
it
be
state
or
federal
I
have
things
that
we
disagree
with,
and
we're
going
to
disagree
with
the
position.
If
we,
if
you
polled
this
group
about
the
etj
you'd,
have
different
opinions
of
it.
But
the
fact
is
is
that
you
know
we
are
having
to
provide
services
that
cities
do
and
we're
having
to
look
at
when
it
comes
to
traffic,
and
it
comes
to
different
things.
E
E
Yeah
I
mean
I'm
gonna.
Tell
you
this
this
little
quick
story
about
my
wife's
Mullins,
West
Virginia,
you
don't
know
where
that
is
go
to
Beckley
and
hang
a
hard
left
and
it
gets
really
tight
when
you're
driving
and
there
was
a
bridge
there.
That
was
a
one
lane
bridge
and
as
they
were
having
a
conversation,
it
was
in
the
40s
and
the
conversation
and
went
like
this.
They
left
it
as
a
one
lane
bridge
because
they
said
when
is
there
ever
gonna,
be
two
cars
meeting
on
that
bridge.
F
E
That's
happens,
they've
changed
those
bridges
and
they
probably
should
have
done
it
sooner.
You
know,
and
we
have
to
look
at
all
that
so
when
somebody's
talking
about
a
visionary,
which
is
a
term
you
like
to
use
for
some
edits,
that's
a
good
manager,
but
they
just
have
to
be
able
to
bring
some
of
the
things
that's
being
done
in
other
places.
They
can
help
fix
some
of
the
problems
here,
but
this
county
is
very
tax.
Sensitive.
F
E
Certain
people,
certain
people,
do
certain
people
don't
care
if
they
get
a
service
at
all.
You
know
and
we're
trying
to
talk
to
all
those
folks
right
now
and
that
person's
got
to
understand
it
because
there's
a
there's,
a
lot
of
people
in
Buncombe
County,
like
other
counties
that
don't
want
you
do
anything,
leave
me
alone,
I'm,
fine,
I'm,
good!
Don't
come
up!
My
road
government.
E
But
only
unless
there's
a
fire
or
grandmama
has
heart
attack,
you
know,
then
you
know
they
want
service
but
and
I
get
that
I
want
to
be
left
alone.
Sometimes
too
you
know,
but
but
we
have
a
big
city
and
with
quarter
of
a
million
people,
four
hundred
million
dollar
budget
somebody's
got
to
understand
that
and
we
got
you
know
we
got
poor
people
across
all
races.
H
E
Have
it
in
certain
pockets,
you
know
just
we
have
a
terrible,
opioid
problem
which
a
lot
of
other
places
have
so,
but
it's
a
great
place
to
live
and
the
people
that
live
here
are
wonderful
they're.
Just
a
people
to
live
in
Buncombe
County
are
amazing.
They're,
just
you
know
you
got
a
little
bit.
You
got
a
little
bit
everything
yeah
yeah.
A
B
B
I
probably
need
some
modification
based
on
our
conversations
afternoon,
but
any
thoughts
about
that,
if
you
can
give
them
to
George
and
having
passing
them
on
to
us,
that'd
be
great,
and
our
plan
would
be
to
get
this
advertised
in
the
announcement
out
next
week
and
then
there
will
be
a
root
crouton
profile,
which
will
come
a
little
bit
later
than
that
and
announcing
the
job.
But
through
this
document
starts
the
clock
so
we'll.
B
E
Think
they
need
to
know
we
could
get
the
information
I'm
thinking
about
our
communications
team.
We've
got.
You
know
somebody
here
representing
that
and
their
award
winning
national
they
have
they.
There
are
national
award
winners
and
presentations
that
they've
done.
We
have
at
the
landfill,
we
have
national.
E
You
know
people
that
have
competed
in
running
major
pieces
of
equipment.
You
know
in
in
every
department,
there's
probably
there's
award-winning
team
members
and
that
we
have
been
nationally
recognized
despite
and
whatever
is
you
know
being
going
on
at
the
top
level
the
this
this
award
winning
team?
You
know
we
have.
We
have
models
that
have
been
copied
across
the
country
and
I
would
find
out
what
they
are
and
I
would
put
that
in
in
my
head
to.
E
G
E
The
people
are
award-winning.
This
talent
here
is
amazing,
and
you
know
you
could
just
tell
people
that,
but
if
you
show
them
a
list
of
the
awards,
I
mean
Cataldo
help
me
award
how
many
wars
have
had
just
50
at
least
fifty,
and
that's
just
the
communications
department
and
him
just
off
top.
He
had
ten
national
first
place,
number
one
national,
whether
it
be
I
mean
registered.
It's
had
a
had
something
that
was
really
you
know
within
so
there's,
but
that
but
the
employees
mean
that
department.
E
You
know,
I,
don't
think
that
you
know
was
attributed
to
the
head
of
that
department.
That
was
done
by
the
done
by
the
department,
because
that's
an
elected
position
in
here,
but
but
still
the
people
that
are
work
for
that
office.
You
know
I,
don't
want
any
credit
for
anything.
I,
don't
think
any
commissioners
up
here
wanting
credit
for
anything.
If
you're
trying
to
recruit
somebody,
we
want
the
people
that
work
for
Buncombe
County
to
receive
a
credit,
but
they're
amazing
I
mean,
and
you
can
there's
national
neiko
Awards
in
see
ACC
Awards.
C
B
D
E
B
E
A
F
A
Know
you
can't
get
all
of
this
in
there,
but
I
think
I
think
this
does
a
great
job
of
summarizing
a
lot
of
the
key
information
and
people
have
comments.
Why
don't
we
just
first
people
to
email
if
you
have
any
suggestions
for
any
other
little
content
or
tweaks
to
it,
but
I
think
this
is.
This
is
very
good.
B
A
Thank
you
for
what
you're
doing
Buncombe
County
is
a
great
place
to
live.
I'm
sure
we're
gonna
get
a
lot
of
great
candidates,
it's
a
great
community
and
a
lot
of
great
opportunities.
So
thanks
for
working
with
us
on
the
process,
what's
just
could
you
just
before
we
adjourn
just
maybe
again
just
highlight
the
next
steps
in
the
process
for
where
we're
going
next.
B
Starts
the
clock
on
the
90-day
clock,
if
you
will,
which
isn't
necessarily
you
know
it
could
happen
quicker
than
that
is
the
approval
hour
and
the
placement
of
the
announcement
used
to
be
and
then
once
that's
a
first,
the
recruitment
phase
begins
and
the
process
is
designed
to
take
as
long
as
90
days,
but
in
today's
world
it
can
take
less
than
that,
because
so
much
of
what
we
do
can
be
done
by
electronically
now.
So
the
goal
is
to
have
somebody
here.
