Board approves grants and a $15,000 transfer to St. Patrick—s Utility Authority
Summary
Supervisors approved a $15,757 solid waste grant application, a $1,107 waste-tire reimbursement and voted to transfer $15,000 to the St. Patrick's Utility Authority to maintain operations.
Adams County supervisors approved multiple grant actions and a transfer to a small utility authority during their Feb. 5 meeting.
The board authorized staff to apply for a Solid Waste grant of $15,757.61 and approved a waste-tire reimbursement claim for $1,107. A separate motion authorized a $15,000 transfer into the St. Patrick's Utility Authority, which officials said has roughly $1,000 remaining and requires periodic county contributions to continue operations; the board approved that transfer by motion and second.
Clerk and finance staff noted the utility authority had ongoing operating costs in the $1,200 to $1,500 monthly range and that the county has historically funded the authority annually. Board members discussed the authority—s limited revenue streams and noted the asset base includes former landfill and timber property; staff said the authority will continue to seek sustainable revenue options.
Ending: The board approved the grant applications and the transfer; staff will process grant submissions and the transfer following standard accounting procedures.
