The commission scheduled a public hearing May 11 on a series of changes in personnel assignments under the executive system that will have no impact on the budget. Under the proposal, the following departments will now be under the Department of Recreation and Administrative Services: 1-purchasing agent (transfer from the finance department), 2-animal control and housing rehabilitation (transfer from the environmental affairs and community development department); and 3-emergency services coordinator will leave the health department and be assigned to 9-1-1 Central Dispatch.

In addition, the commission will consider posting an assistant crime victim's advocate in the prosecutor's office; a full time animal control officer and full time youth development worker at the Juvenile Home.
