The Atoka Municipal Golf Authority approved payment of July purchase orders after trustees reviewed an Amazon miscellaneous charge and line-item questions tied to prior battery purchases.
During questions about the PO list, a trustee asked whether a $2,300 Amazon miscellaneous line included lithium battery purchases. Staff confirmed three lithium batteries had been purchased and that a $700 entry corresponded to that purchase. “Okay. That answered my question,” a trustee said after the clarification.
Why it matters: trustees said they want transparency for miscellaneous online purchases and clarity about who authorizes spending. They emphasized that purchases above staff limits will need treasurer approval or formal procurement steps.
Action: a motion to approve the purchase orders passed by roll call (Mister Armstrong: Aye; Mister Burrows/Burridge: Aye; Mister Kathy: Aye). Trustees agreed to follow existing spending limits and have staff work with Treasurer Danny for purchase authorization.
Ending: trustees did not change PO approvals but requested staff produce clearer documentation of prior online orders and confirm which charges correspond to lithium batteries and other equipment.
