Summary

The Van Buren County Commission approved a $6,250 transfer for a recurring sheriff’s CPC grant and a $288.80 budget amendment to cover overtime wages, both by roll call votes.

The Van Buren County Commission voted Sept. 2 to move funds within the sheriff’s budget for two routine purposes.

Commissioners approved a transfer of $6,250 from account 46290‑101 to 101‑54210‑399 for the sheriff’s CPC (Citizen’s Police Council or similar recurring) grant; the motion was made by Commissioner Terry Hodges and seconded by Commissioner Kale Crane, and a roll call recorded all members as voting yes.

The commission also approved a budget amendment moving $288.80 from fund 44170‑101 to line item 101‑54110‑187. The sheriff or a sheriff’s representative explained the small transfer covers overtime wages tied to a grant and that even modest amounts must be moved between accounts formally.

Both items were recorded as routine financial housekeeping required when expenditures cross account lines; commissioners approved both motions by roll call.
