Page 10-A-THE BHUNSWICK BEA( Housekeepii Will Stay Sa Brunswick County Commissioners Monday night tabled a request to add a half-time position in the housekeeping department on a 4-1 vote after a motion by Commissioner Frankie Habon to deny the request ialled on a 3-2 vote. "Maybe we could get a half-time person to finish out the year, but I don't want to see the number of employees keep increasing," Raton indicated, saying the county could end up "overstaffed." Commissioners Chris Chappell, Herman Ixjve and Grace Beasley voted against Raton's motion. Chappeii had firsi proposed the half-time position be created but withdrew his motion. Later, he voted against llabon's motion and also Poole's substitute motion to table the item until budget time. County manager Billy Carter had requested the addition of a full-time position in housekeeping at budget time, but the request was denied. Then, in November, the previous I ward agreed, at the urging of Commissioner Hubin Sioan, for Housekeeping Assistant tuervia Williams to go from full-time to parttime status in order to protect her Social Security benefits, decreasing the size of the housekeeping staff rather tlian increasing it. They took no action on a separate request to add a full-time position to the department. Housekeeping Supervisor I'.iiouise Russ i>?ys the loss of the half-time employee tuis \.r?ated a hardship on other employees in the deport:r"ni She nrnnnscd to move Mrs. Williams to tlie lialf-time slot and fill the previously-existing full-time position. funding the half-time position through June would cost the county $2,800. Carter again recommended filling the full-time position and lopk at the status of the lialf-timc post again at budget time, prompting Coinmls stoncr Jim Poole to ask, "Why can't we do now what we were going to do then?"
