Speaker 1 introduced agenda item 14B, a modified ECC (Emergency Communications Center) compensation and benefits policy, and told the commission the change would not require additional county funds. "My understanding, this is no new money," Speaker 1 said, adding the allocation exists and the action is a ratification so the policy can be in place.

Speaker 5 asked whether the item was related to discussion from the prior month about the ECC director filling two roles; Speaker 1 clarified the agenda item pertains to employee pay and not to the staffing question raised previously. Speaker 1 moved to approve the policy; a second was recorded by Commissioner Wright in the spoken record. The commission voted in favor and the policy was approved.

The commission did not discuss budget details, specific pay scales or implementation dates in the meeting record. The action as recorded was a policy ratification that, according to Speaker 1, uses existing funds rather than requiring new appropriations. Next steps for implementation or reporting were not specified during the meeting.
