Summary

The county moved nearly $480,000 into construction-in-progress for a 911 building remodel (ARP-funded) and approved a $99.98 salary-line transfer; auditors requested reclassification until project completion.

The Van Buren County court approved accounting transfers that reclassify previously spent ARP funds and move a small salary balance between payroll lines.

Per the record, auditors requested that previously recorded building costs be moved into a 'construction in progress' account until the remodeling work on the county's 911 facility is complete. The court approved a transfer of $479,814.84 from a buildings line (1006-103-4002 per the reading) to construction-in-progress (1006-103-4006) to reflect that classification.

Separately, the court approved a small payroll reclassification of $99.98 from salaries full time to salaries part time (1004-14-01/2001 to 1004-14-01/2002) to correct line balances. Officials noted the funds at issue for the 911 reclassification are ARP monies that have already been spent; the accounting change is procedural to satisfy an audit request.

A commissioner asked which building was affected; the response identified the 911 facility and clarified the work is a remodel rather than new construction. The court approved the transfers on a motion and voice/roll-call; the transcript records an affirmative vote to proceed.
