Scurry County presents wide-ranging budget amendments and reports $2.2 million in accounts payable, including $752,000 MS building payment
Summary
County staff presented multiple budget amendments spanning permanent improvements, ARPA reallocations and departmental lines, and reported total accounts payable of $2,205,008.81, which includes a $752,000 payment on the MS building.
County financial staff presented numerous budget amendments across funds and line items and told the court the county’s accounts payable totaled $2,205,008.81, a package that includes a $752,000 payment on the MS building.
Speaker 4 walked the court through adjustments: permanent improvements and several department transfers to correct negative balances; ARPA fund moves to cover an EMS building administrative fee and capital expense; county clerk training and equipment, audit expense, appraisal district fees, insurance lines, library ramp concrete work, and road-and-bridge purchases including a small steel roller and capital outlay for precinct work.
The court discussed the need to spend available line items before the end of the fiscal year and accepted the budget amendments as presented for placement on the record. No roll-call vote or numeric tally on the amendments was recorded in the transcript; staff indicated the amendments would be reflected in accounting entries and future agendas as needed.
Commissioners acknowledged the large payment tied to the MS building and directed staff to ensure the accounting entries and next agenda reflect any remaining follow-up items.
