The Weston County Commission approved a transfer of $22,125.47 from an American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) account into the Weston County Fairgrounds sinking fund to fund work on the fairgrounds’ rock wall.
During discussion commissioners said the funds were intended as a one‑time capital solution rather than an ongoing operating subsidy. One commissioner requested periodic updates; the official who will manage the sinking‑fund spending agreed to provide reports every six months and to present invoices for any lock purchases or signage tied to fundraising. The motion included the account numbers read into the record and direction that the funds move from ARPA into the fairgrounds sinking fund.
A commissioner requested a contingency to account for minor rounding differences in the ledger; staff said they would reconcile cents and provide status updates. The motion passed on a voice vote recorded in the meeting transcript.
