Board actions: agenda, consent items, budget amendment and school board transfer approved
The Greene County Board of Commissioners approved several procedural and financial items in a meeting that included public comment and announcements.

Motions approved during the meeting included: adoption of the meeting agenda as presented; approval of the consent agenda, which included minutes and refunds; a budget amendment to add insurance funds for four newly received transportation vans; and the school board’s request to transfer $1,000,000 from its capital outlay fund to its local current expense fund to cover a one-time shortfall. County management said the transfer is legal and statutorily permissible and that the superintendent, identified in the discussion as Dr. McNeil, described the request as a one-time ask.

The budget amendment was described by county staff as a request to move additional money into the transportation insurance line because the new vans needed coverage; staff said they will reconcile credits and reimbursements as older vehicles are retired and revenue is received.

The chair called the votes and announced that each motion carried; the transcript records each vote as passed and the chair indicated motions were carried unanimously. The meeting later recessed into a closed session under a general statute for attorney-client matters and then returned to open session before adjourning.

No additional details on specific vote tallies or individual commissioner votes were recorded in the public transcript.
