Morrow County commissioners approve transfers, engineer appropriation and school resource officer agreement

The Morrow County Board of Commissioners approved several routine fiscal actions and a school resource officer (SRO) agreement during its May 5 meeting.

The board approved a $55 transfer for the general fund development office, moving funds from “supplies and materials” to “communications, printing and advertising.” Commissioners also approved transfers related to payments from Chesterfield, Johnson, other customers and a payment from Corsa for probation vehicle damage, and appropriated certified money to the Engineer's Fund; specific dollar amounts for those payments were not specified in the meeting record.

The commissioners approved a transfer of general fund development money to pay for bus usage (amount not specified) and voted to journalize the treasurer's gas sheet as of the close of business on April 30, 2025.

The board approved the school resource officer agreement with Mount Gilead Local Schools.

Several procedural motions also passed: the board recessed and later returned to regular session, and the meeting was adjourned by motion at the end of the agenda.

Roll calls in the transcript repeatedly recorded affirmative responses from “Mister Mason” and “Mister Abraham.” The meeting record on the audio transcript does not record named movers or seconds for each motion; many motions were announced with “So moved” and “Second” without a named mover on the audio. Where roll‑call responses were recorded, the transcript captured Mason and Abraham answering “Yes.” The transcript does not list complete individual vote tallies for all members on each motion.
