Court reads emergency budget amendment for Cleaner Water Act fund; amounts recited, adoption status not recorded
Summary
The Fiscal Court read an emergency budget amendment relating to the Cleaner Water Act fund that recited increases in receipts and an unbudgeted expenditure; the transcript records the amounts but not a formal vote adopting the amendment.
The Fiscal Court read an emergency budget amendment that would increase receipts and appropriate an unbudgeted expenditure for the Cleaner Water Act fund and Cleaner Water Program. A county official read the amendment language into the record and recited numeric amounts during the reading.
The reading said the budget should be amended to increase receipts for the Cleaner Water Act fund and the Cleaner Water Program by "a hundred and $70,390" and to include an unbudgeted expenditure in the amount of "$10,004" in the budget. The language was read as part of an ordinance-like text presented to the court.
The county attorney and magistrates did not record a subsequent roll-call vote in the provided transcript excerpt; the transcript contains the reading of the amendment and a general statement about processing an emergency budget amendment but does not include the court’s final adoption or rejection of the amendment in the excerpt available.
Because the transcript supplies the recited dollar amounts but does not show a formal adoption vote, the court record should be checked for formal minutes or for a subsequent portion of the meeting to confirm action on the amendment.
