Alleghany County approves DSS budget amendment, adjusts lease accounting; board enters closed session on personnel
Summary
The board approved a Department of Social Services (DSS) budget amendment for saline reimbursement and transferred lease amounts into debt service for current-year budgeting; both votes passed 4-0. The board then voted 4-0 to enter a closed session under North Carolina General Statute 143-318.11(a)(5) to discuss personnel.
County Finance Officer Robin Hamilton presented year-to-date revenue and expenditure figures and the commissioners approved two budget actions during the meeting.
