+end of interview
Lumb I was wondering why the guy from Scriba was here. He looked so familiar. You know what I think it was, when the landfill had their walk through for that project, Scriba was on the list.
Moore Yeah.
Lumb When I was in there for that, one of the guys asked me if they had a license. I said I didn
Moore Well he called me and I told him.
Salva Has that been awarded officially?
Moore Not that I know of.
Salva Ridley was how much lower?
Moore $450. That was on the water plant.
Lumb Yeah. That was really tight. Ridley told me about that one.
Moore Ridley has had an Auburn license for a long time.
Salva Does Buddy Ridley have the license or is it his Dad
Moore I think it was the father.
Salva How does that work?
Lumb It
Salva But, the father is deceased.
Moore Oh is he? How long ago did he die?
Salva Five years.
Moore What was the father
Salva Benjamin Ridley.
Moore Who is the license in?
Salva The son
Moore I think he took the test back in 1992.
Lumb I think somebody from Ridley took the test since I
Moore I remember back in 1992, I got into an argument with him because they were doing a lot of work at the water plant. So he just came in and took the test.
Blair He took it January 13th of 1993.
Moore Okay. Does it say Jr. or Sr. on it?
Blair No.
Salva We can check on the renewal.
Moore I
Salva When somebody comes in to renew a license, we need to verify that it is indeed the license holder because a license cannot be transferred.
Moore Right.
Lumb Like what happened with Merit Electric.
Salva Right. My business does not have a license. I have a license. Same with all of the master license holders.
Moore Correct. Does it give their age or anything on the application?
Quill No.
Moore We can look at the years of experience.
Salva We should have a way to positively identify the individual renewing against the person who took the test. Date of Birth, Social Security number, drivers license number? Are there any legalities, with requesting certain personal information?
Moore I don
Quill This is just another reason why they have to come in person to renew the license.
Salva Oh sure.
Quill We also need to have “deceased” an option on our license program, along with active, inactive and revoked. I
Moore We have to get him to put that in.
Salva And it
Klimek I say we go with the social security number.
Salva I think so too.
Moore Yeah, we can make room for it in the application.
Salva There are a lot of father and son businesses with the same name. We need to consider this.
Quill So we want a place on the application for the social security number and date of birth?
Moore Yes.
