Lunenburg supervisors shift $400,000 in solar funds to economic development, approve multiple budget moves
Summary
The board approved FY2024 budget adjustments on Oct. 12, moving $400,000 from the Debt Service Fund to the Economic Development Fund and approving several other transfers, plus a $5,327.45 health-department carryover purchase and a $5,000 grant match to an agricultural group.
The Lunenburg County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously on Oct. 12 to approve several FY2024 budget adjustments and smaller fiscal measures, including a $400,000 transfer of solar siting agreement funds from the Debt Service Fund to the Economic Development Fund.
County Administrator Tracy M. Gee presented the package of adjustments to the board, which also included moving $4,288.50 from EPS funds to DEQ deferred revenue to permit a FY2024 reimbursement, and transferring $15,000 from Economic Development Grant Funds to the ARPA fund for a VTC tourism grant. The board approved all items without dissent.
In related fiscal business, the board approved the use of $5,327.45 in FY2023 carryover funds requested by the Piedmont Health District to purchase office chairs and waiting-room furniture for the local Health Department. The request was made by Piedmont Health District Business Manager Matthew Claybrook and presented to the board by Administrator Gee.
The board also authorized a $5,000 grant match to the Central Virginia Poultry Group, a motion moved by Supervisor T. Wayne Hoover and seconded by Supervisor Edward Pennington, which the board approved unanimously.
Administrator Gee told supervisors the county received an extra $50,000 from Meridian Waste as part of annual donations; she has notified Meridian Waste and the company will hold future donations until FY2025. The board recorded the county’s September payroll and related warrants, which the consent agenda reflected, and approved routine consent items and minutes for inclusion in county records.
What happens next: the transfers will be recorded in the county’s FY2024 accounting, and the Health Department expects to proceed with the one-time furniture purchase. The board did not postpone or table any of the approved fiscal items.
