Commissioners move to have districts manage fuel bids, travel claims and lease payments
Summary
County leadership said each district will assume responsibility for bidding for fuel and handling travel claims and lease payments; staff offered to assist districts that are not yet set up.
Commissioners discussed administrative changes in how districts will manage purchasing and payments.
Officials said the county will shift responsibility so that each district handles its own fuel bidding, travel claims and lease and lease-payment processing. Staff noted district 3 and district 2 already have systems in place; staff offered assistance to help district 1 and other offices implement the change and provide payment books or printouts for revolving funds.
The presenter said some offices have paper payment books while others use printouts and that staff in the county office have been helping districts get started. No formal ordinance or motion was adopted; this was presented as a change in administrative practice and staff offered to support training and setup.
Ending: Staff will continue to help districts implement their purchasing and payment procedures and will provide guidance or materials to offices that need them.
