Finance committee approves $505,001.66 city contribution increase for College Park project after questions
Summary
Glynn County finance committee members pulled a consent item to ask about a $505,001.66 increase in the city funding commitment for the College Park project; staff said the city’s payment covers the city’s share of unexpected higher project costs.
Glynn County’s Finance Committee approved a consent-agenda item that includes a $505,001.66 city funding commitment increase for the College Park project after members pulled the item to ask questions.
The item was removed from the consent agenda for discussion and later approved as part of a motion to accept several pulled items. Sarah Hudson, staff member, said the amount represents an increase from the city because the overall project cost came in higher than originally anticipated and the city provided an additional funding allocation to cover its portion of the added cost.
Committee members asked whether the amount was an increase or decrease and the reason for it; Hudson explained the county added the city’s funding slip into the county budget to reflect the change. The committee approved the pulled items later in the meeting by motion.
The committee did not provide additional budget detail in the discussion on record; the minutes will reflect that members questioned the increase before approving the consent items.
