Committee advances ordinance 25-34 adding Section 8 for criminal-justice sales-tax transfer to 911 PSAP
Summary
The Budget & Finance Committee approved sending proposed ordinance 25-34 to the full court. The supplemental ordinance adds Section 8 tied to the criminal-justice sales tax and authorizes payments to the consolidated 911 PSAP fund; the item passed on a voice vote.
The Faulkner County Budget & Finance Committee moved proposed ordinance 25-34 to the full court after a brief discussion of a supplemental section added that evening.
The Chair told members the only change in the supplemental packet was an added Section 8 connected to the criminal justice sales tax fund. He also said section 3 of the ordinance provides a payment to the consolidated 911 PSAP fund to cover certain owed revenues. "Let's pay attention not necessarily to the ordinance that's in the large packet, but the other ordinance that was given supplemental this evening; the only section that was added ... is section 8," the Chair said.
A committee member asked for clarification about the $55,000 figure referenced in committee discussion; Member 4 explained the year-end movement of funds was intended to cover utilities and other charges across accounts. Member 3 moved to place ordinance 25-34 on the table for discussion; Member 4 seconded, and the committee voted by voice to pass the ordinance to the full court.
The committee did not record a roll-call tally in the transcript. County staff present, including Mr. Higgins, were noted as available to answer further questions at the full-court consideration.
