Meigs County commissioners discuss sheriff budget request and timing for jail remodel report
Meigs County commissioners discussed a sheriff's office budget request and the expected timeline for a report on jail remodeling during their meeting (date not specified).

The sheriff's budget request was raised in discussion when Speaker 2 (role not specified) said, "Next 1 is sheriff's budget request. That is for power that was pulled out and is". Commissioners and staff also discussed budget-amendment items referenced in the meeting as "1 to budget amendment" and "1 for the sale budget," though the transcript did not specify the precise dollar amounts or ordinance numbers tied to those items.

Speaker 4 (role not specified) asked for a timeline for the jail-related work, saying, "Do we have an ETA on the reporting to jail? Like, they're going out to tell us what they need to do to remodel it or whatever, bring it up, even when they're supposed to turn that." Speaker 2 later responded that the report timeline "could be... 2 months," a remark recorded in the transcript as "It could be It could be it could be wasted to 2 months." The record did not specify who will prepare the report, what the scope of the remodel would include, or whether the work requires outside approvals.

The transcript includes several brief confirmations and procedural remarks (multiple speakers saying "Yes" and "No action Yes"), but it does not record a formal motion, second, or vote on the sheriff's request or the jail report within the provided excerpts. The meeting also included a brief expression of appreciation for veterans: Speaker 5 (role not specified) said the county appreciates "all the things you do for us that we provide for the veterans every week."

Because the record does not include formal actions or dollar amounts tied to the budget items in the provided transcript, commissioners' comments and timing estimates are reported here as discussion only. The transcript segments provided do not identify staff who will prepare cost estimates or reports, nor do they state an explicit deadline tied to a formal motion or vote.

No formal votes or ordinance numbers were recorded in the provided excerpts. Commissioners asked staff for follow-up information and an estimated timeline for the jail report; further details, including cost estimates and any formal action, were not specified in the transcript excerpts supplied.
