Summary

With residents reportedly receiving others' mail and medications due to address changes, the board authorized the 911 coordinator to send notice letters, begin address corrections, and approved budget transfers for 9‑1‑1 uniforms and vehicle maintenance.

Miss Bailey, the county 9‑1‑1 coordinator, told the board she had identified multiple households receiving mail at incorrect addresses after a local street renumbering (Coleman Road/Johnson Road). She said the change affects emergency response and could delay life‑saving services.

The board authorized Miss Bailey to send letters to affected residents, to notify postmasters and utilities, and to take steps necessary under county procedures to correct 9‑1‑1 physical addresses. The chair asked that the coordinator report progress back to the board.

Miss Bailey also requested line‑item changes for the 9‑1‑1 budget: a new uniform line and vehicle maintenance funding. The board approved several transfers: creation of the uniform line (097230691) with $2,000 moved from other miscellaneous supplies, and a supplemental transfer into vehicle maintenance (097230542). Supervisors discussed the presence of $4,000 in the referenced account and approved the transfers after clarifying ledger timing.

Supervisors emphasized the life‑safety importance of accurate addressing and asked the coordinator to coordinate with the postmaster and utilities. The board asked for a status update on progress at future meetings.
