Commissioners approve revised print‑center fee schedule to cover costs; court requires future revisions come back for review
The commissioners approved a revision to the county print‑center fee schedule on Nov. 10 after a presentation by County Purchasing Agent Karen Davidson.

Davidson explained the previous fee schedule (1¢ per click) did not cover the print center’s cost of goods sold. She said the revised schedule prices common internal services at breakeven — for example, a black‑and‑white click at about 10¢ and a color click at about 25¢ — and adds line items for envelopes, binding, large format and other services. Purchasing staff told the court the county will track cost avoidance and print‑shop usage in the Munis ERP system and report those savings on a monthly basis if requested.

Commissioner Butler asked that future revisions to the fee schedule return to commissioners’ court for review because fee changes can affect departmental budgets; purchasing agreed to that request and the court approved the item as amended. The item was presented as an internal cost‑recovery measure rather than a revenue‑raising change for outside users.
