Commission approves routine budget amendments, grants and appointments

The commission approved a series of routine fiscal resolutions submitted by directors and the mayor. Director of Schools Mark Florence presented multiple budget adjustments — including $5,000 from a '10 works' grant, $10,741 from Tennessee Risk Management and other grant and refund line items — each motioned and approved on the floor. A $150,000 school resource officer grant was placed in the sheriff's office budget (motioned by Commissioner Keane; second by Commissioner Murphy) and smaller sheriff and jail maintenance items were considered later in the agenda.
