The Silver Bow County Budget and Finance Commission on Wednesday reviewed an expenditure list totaling $870,628.64 and approved it by voice vote, the chair said.
A commissioner moved “that we review the expenditure list as of Wednesday, 05/21/2025, in the amount of $870,628.64.” The motion was seconded and the chair recorded the motion as passing 4 to 0.
Commissioners asked for clarification on specific line items before the vote. Commissioner Thatcher asked about a $366.05 line described in the packet; Director Hassler replied that it was retainage withheld from a 2021 accounts-payable item and that “upon successful completion of the project, the retainage is then paid out of this account.” Thatcher asked who the contractor was; Hassler said it was a contractor “installing the emergency generator at the Civic Center.”
