Supervisor Pell explained that he called this meeting,- to discuss
the appointment of Susan Long as a Clerk-Typist :,for for . the Town. of
Southold. She is presently number three on the.. Civi1 Service .list,
and the list expires today. . When the new list:-comes, out Mrs. Long .
will be number six. There is a Clerk-Typist position open in the
Supervisor' s Office, vacated by Joan R.ichter .when- she moved to the
position of Account Clerk. In doing this, the Clerk-Stenographer
position in the Planning Board office will remain vacant and when
Mrs . Long passes the Clerk-Stenographer test . she. can be upgraded
to that position. Mr. ' Raynor. agreed that the position should be
a Clerk-Stenographer since there are certain. hearings held by the
Planning Board when a stenographer is recuired. He said that with-
reference- to her ability, she is coming along very well and the
Town has almost .six months invested, in her training'.
Councilman Murdock objected to downgrading the job. Mrs. Long was
hired as a Clerk-Stenographer and he strongly feels a• Clerk-Steno-
grapher is needed in the Planning'Board office.. If the Planning
Board had a hearing. where a Clerk-Stenographer-must legally act,
the Town would have to go out and. hire a. second person, . a stenographer,
to do the job. The Town should not .take care of the person,. they
should take care of the job. Councilman Murdock emphasized. that
he was' not in- favor of the move, but did not feel there was a better
way to handle the subject, ` at this'..time. There are- only two Clerk-
Stenographers presently-employed -by the Town, Linda Kowalski and
Betty Neville. He would like to be .assured that Mrs-. Long will take j
and pass the Clerk-Stenographer..test the' next time. it is.. given so she
can be assigned to the position in the Planning:.Board as a Stenograph
Mr. Raynor advised the Board that Mrs. Long will be. taking_ the- test
in April and is presently enrolled in , i stenographic. class. in school.
On motion of Supervisor Pell, seconded.by' Councilman Murphy,. .it was
RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold hire Susan Long,
from the Suffolk County Civil Service List, for the position of Clerk-
