Commissioners approved two budget items from the commission’s special-projects and insurance lines.
Ice machine: Staff requested use of special-project funds to buy a nugget ice maker to restore an in‑facility ice source; the quoted price was $6,310.03 including sales tax (shipping not included). A commissioner moved to use special-project funds and the commission voted in favor.
Gift cards: Finance staff said First Citizens Bank will again provide bulk gift cards but has changed available denominations (the $60 card used previously is not offered; available denominations include $50 and $75). Staff said the insurance line has sufficient remaining funds to cover gift cards and related handling, that finance will process the purchase by ACH rather than a PO, and that cards will be bagged and packaged for the December meeting. Staff advised recipients to register cards promptly with the bank to avoid processing delays.
Both items were approved during the meeting; staff will proceed with purchase and distribution logistics.
