~8 f...J TUESDAY MARCH 14, 1978 indicating that an arrangement might be developed to employ a nurse, on a part-time basis, by which arrangement (perhaps with the County of Henry) the medical needs of his jail inmates might be better assessed, obviating the necessity--as now is the case--of calling in the jail physician unless the needs demand. The consensus of Council's opinion authorized Sheriff Carter to include funds for said three additional personnel in his forthcoming 1978-79 budget request for Council's consideration and, also, for Sheriff Carter to explore the possibility of arranging with the County of Henry for the medical services of a part-time nurse. City Manager Noland informed Council that, as a result of his recently-issued invitation to local certified public accounting firms to submit bid proposals for the conduct of the City's annual audit for the next three-to-five years (beginning with fiscal 1977-78), three such proposals have been received and, with the concurrence of Council (which was given), these proposals (as yet unopened) would be forwarded to each member of Council in advance of Council's forthcoming March 28th meeting, at which meeting Council might be in a position to appraise the bid proposals and award a contract to the CPA firm Council selects. Council referred to the Planning Commission, for its consideration and recommendation, an Application for a Special-Use Permit filed by the Martinsville Volunteer Fire Company for the purpose of conducting its 1978 Annual Bazaar at the Martinsville High School parking lot (June 26th through July 1st), noting that the City School Board has granted the Volunteer Fire Company permission to use the parking lot for such purpose, subject to the issuance by the City of the applied-for permit, and further noting that Brown Street Field (at which location the Company holds the required permit through 1981, by Council's action of October 12, 1976) is no longer available because of the Mulberry Road Extension construction now underway.
