Finding F1-2

Finding F1-2

There is an overall belief and feeling by Tuolumne County Department Heads that some Department Heads were not given the necessary access and time by Tuolumne County Administration and/or Board of Supervisors. Another significant issue in this finding is that many of those interviewed told your Grand Jury that the Tuolumne County Administration policy is to meet with each Department Head at least once per month. Unfortunately, the reality was that the policy was not followed for a multitude of reasons. Sometimes the Department Head held the belief that the meetings were not productive. Sometimes the Department Heads held the belief that Senior County Administration did not support the Department Head’s positions. Sometimes the Department Head held the belief that Senior County Administration actively attempted to hinder the Department Head.
