At a Clay County meeting, officials approved a change order for a renovation project and moved contingency funds between budget lines, then approved five vouchers before adjourning.

Speaker 3 moved "I move to approve the change order for the renovation project that we discussed at the last meeting," and Speaker 2 seconded. The board discussed an estimated cost of about $141,000 for the change order; Speaker 4 cautioned that "that was their estimate that they gave me. It, good chance it might be more than that." The motion passed by voice vote; the transcript records no opposing voice.

The meeting also approved Resolution 2025-43, described in the transcript as contingency transfers needed after budget items were missed while merging software systems. The transfers referenced fund identifiers recorded in the meeting as "04/1982 to the nurse" and "02/1948 to historic preservation." Speaker 3 moved to approve Resolution 2025-43 and Speaker 2 seconded; the resolution passed by voice vote.

Separately, Speaker 2 moved to approve vouchers; the transcript notes there were five vouchers and the motion passed by voice vote. The meeting closed after a brief logistics note—Speaker 4 said they would email "Austin" to get an item started—and an adjournment motion, followed by attendees exchanging "Happy New Year" wishes.

Votes at a glance

- Resolution 2025-43 (contingency transfers to fund codes listed in transcript): approved by voice vote; tally not specified in transcript.
- Vouchers (5): approved by voice vote; tally not specified in transcript.

Why it matters: The change order increases the project’s committed costs and the contingency transfers move budget authority between program lines, both of which affect how county funds are allocated for nursing and historic preservation activities. The transcript records an estimate that could rise, which may require future budget adjustments or additional approvals.

The meeting adjourned after those votes; no future meeting date or further procedural steps were recorded in the transcript.
