County seeks $165,040 budget amendment to account for poll book payment timing
Summary
Houston County commissioners placed on the agenda a $165,040 budget amendment to account for poll books purchased in the 2023–24 fiscal year but paid in the current year; staff described the request as a timing correction.
Houston County commissioners discussed a request to approve a $165,040 budget amendment to account for poll books that were included in the election department's 2023–24 fiscal-year budget but were paid in the current fiscal year.
A staff member said the change is a timing issue: the expense was approved in last year’s budget but the payment occurred in the current fiscal year, so the commission must approve a budget amendment to reflect the payment in this year’s accounts.
Commissioners raised no substantive questions during the item and the request was placed on the agenda without objection. The transcript does not show a formal roll-call vote during the session.
