Why it matters: These routine resolutions authorize disposal and sale of county property, implement small-line budget adjustments, and permit procurement actions needed for elections operations (including sole-source procurement for specified voting equipment). They enable county operations to proceed under the amended budgets and allow execution of the procurement actions listed on the agenda.
Ending: Procurement and the clerk’s office will complete the administrative steps required to implement these resolutions and report back as necessary in future board materials.
