Commission approves $95,000 for office furniture and courtroom technology upgrades
Summary
The commission approved $95,000 in capital expenditures — $10,000 for a conference table and chairs for a large committee room and $85,000 for courtroom technology upgrades — with a reduction to fund balance reported.
The Coffee County Board of Commissioners approved a projects‑fund resolution allocating $95,000 for office and courtroom upgrades.
County staff described two linked requests: $10,000 for a custom U‑shaped conference table, chairs and microphones for the county’s larger committee room to improve sight lines and participant spacing; and $85,000 to address long‑standing compatibility and technology needs in the Justice Center courtrooms. Staff said the courtroom upgrade was developed from a detailed specification provided by the circuit court clerk and approved by capital outlay and Budget & Finance committees.
Commissioner Benton Brown moved the resolution and Commissioner Joseph Hodge seconded; the full commission approved the measure 15‑0. Staff said the combined $95,000 reduces the projects fund balance. Construction and procurement actions will proceed through negotiated vendor agreements approved by the capital outlay committee and county purchasing rules.
