At a special-called meeting on Aug. 18, the presiding official announced a need to transfer $300,000 from the general fund to the road fund to cover an unforeseen health-insurance claim, and members approved the transfer by voice vote. The meeting record shows “all those in favor, please say aye,” followed by “Motion passes.”
The transfer was described as a response to an unanticipated health-insurance cost; meeting speakers said not all of the $300,000 was strictly for the claim but that the money was being moved to address the issue. The transcript contains no vote roll call or individual yes/no votes, and the motion’s mover and seconder were not identified in the record provided.
Officials established a quorum before taking the vote. No statute, ordinance, or budget code citation was provided in the discussion; speakers framed the item as an operational transfer to cover short-term expenses.
Because the transcript records only a voice vote with ayes and no recorded oppositions, the body appears to have implemented the transfer immediately. The record does not show any additional direction to staff, follow-up reporting requirements, or an amendment to the motion during the meeting.
