The Craven County Board of Commissioners approved a budget amendment during its Dec. 1 meeting to cover a retiree payout from Emergency Services.
Jeremy Fisher, representing Emergency Services, told commissioners that an unexpected retirement of a long-term employee required additional funds. The amount was read by staff during the meeting and transcribed as "34008 18." After a motion, second and roll call, the board approved the amendment with all commissioners voting yes.
