OLD BUSINESS
2008 Food Inspection Cost Breakdown The Board reviewed the breakdown of fees presented by Agent Graf. The Board determined that there were only two options to take in regards to food inspector compensation: fixed rate per category or an hourly rate. The Board decided they need to explore how other towns are handling food inspector compensation.
Mr. Fleuette motioned to maintain a dual pay rate for food inspection categories 3 and 4 for the foreseeable future (approximately six months); to increase the frequency of inspections; to research what individual food inspectors are being paid in other communities; and to establish an office based system to be sure food inspections are being performed; Ms. Arnold seconded the motion and the Board voted unanimously.
The Board also agreed that they would like a quarterly report on food inspections going forward to be sure inspections are on track.
