BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: March 19, 2013
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Kay Godwin
SUBJECT: Screening Committee for Airports Director
DEPARTMENT: Human Resources
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Appoint a Screening Committee to review employment
applications for the Airports Director position.
BACKGROUND: The former Airports Director resigned effective March 1, 2013. The Human
Resources Policy VII, C states, in part, “A screening committee comprised of a Commissioner,
the County Administrator or designee, and others as determined and approved by the Board, will
review all qualified employment applications for vacant department director positions.”
The Board could consider appointment of the committee to include: Commissioner Kelly
Windes, BCC liaison commissioner to the Airports; Okaloosa County Administrator; Kay
Godwin, Human Resources Director; Bill Johnson, Executive Director, Florida Airports Council;
Dino Sinopoli, Chair of Airport Committee, Crestview Chamber of Commerce; Mary Ann
Ustick, Destin City Manager.
OPTIONS: Provide guidance on the appointment of a screening committee. At the Board's
direction, the committee could begin the initial application screening process in advance of a
new County Administrator commencing employment, depending upon that time frame, and the
County Administrator could join the committee at the interview stage.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Provide direction as desired.

James D. Curry, County Administrator
