Adair County commissioners voted during a special‑call meeting to move unallocated ARPA interest to fund bathroom renovations at the Jim Blair Center and approved a set of budget amendments and fund transfers.

The finance officer reported the ARPA account held $63,873.05 in principal with $51,058.01 in interest. Commissioner Mark (as noted in discussion) moved to allocate the $51,058.01 in ARPA interest to the Jim Blair Center bathrooms; the motion was seconded and carried. Commissioners discussed earlier set‑aside amounts for playground work and confirmed that some principal remained unallocated.

Earlier in the meeting the court approved fund‑to‑fund transfers including $50,000 from the general fund to the animal shelter and $175,000 from the general fund to the jail fund. Staff also moved $10,530.05 of funds for lost revenue as part of routine year‑end adjustments.

The board treated the ARPA interest as subject to timing and descriptive limitations; commissioners referenced a deadline to dedicate remaining ARPA funds. After debate about prior bathroom budget planning and remaining playground funds, the body approved the interest allocation and carried first reading of budget amendments totaling approximately $78,881.24 in newly recognized funds.

The commission did not schedule a final adoption date in the meeting minutes; staff were directed to incorporate the amendments into next steps for final budget action.
