The Forsyth County Civil Service Board has scheduled a meeting at 10 a.m. Thursday, November 10, where it is expected to render its decision in the case of fired Planning Director Jeff Chance, according to county risk manager Charity Clark. The Civil Service Board last December upheld Chance's August 2010 firing after sexually and racially charged emails were found on his office computer and for other violations of county policy. A superior court judge ordered the board to hear arguments again last month and to reconsider its ruling. The board has the authority to overrule Chance's dismissal and give him back his $92,000-a-year job, plus about $100,000 in back pay.
