Why are our legal expenses so high?

It appears to me Tunica County government is setting us up for these employee lawsuits because the Board of Supervisors does not have in place what is expected of any other $45 million business.

Here are a few ideas to turn this situation around:

1. Each employee should be given a job description.

2. Each employee should have a yearly review as close as possible to their employment anniversary.

3. Each employee should have a current Employee Handbook.

4. The Employee Handbook should be reviewed annually with any changes added to the Board of Supervisors' Minutes and changes sent to all employees. It needs to be noted this rewrite has been in the works for about 2 years. Come on, get the job done.

So, what is the cost to Tunica County for not getting our house in order? The cost in Nov 2011 was just shy of $50,000.00.
