FULTON COUNTY — The Fulton County Board of Commissioners on Jan. 13 unanimously approved a slate of administrative actions, including a personnel hire, financial certifications and a multiyear grant agreement to administer the county’s drug and alcohol program.
Commissioner Randy H. Bunch moved to hire Angie Horton to the Domestic Relations Department’s union position of Enforcement Officer I, effective Jan. 26, 2026. The Salary Board later set Horton’s pay per the Collective Bargaining Agreement. The board voted to approve accounts payable dated Jan. 13, 2026, totaling $135,622.38, with $66,644.09 charged to the General Fund.
Executive Development Director Julie Dovey asked the board to approve the 2025–2030 Franklin/Fulton Grant Agreement (#4100101172) that designates Franklin County as the single county authority for the Drug & Alcohol Program; Commissioner Randy H. Bunch moved to approve and execute the agreement, and the motion passed unanimously.
Interim County Treasurer Amy Bishop presented the month-ending Dec. 31, 2025 account report and the board approved and executed the 2026 Certification of County Funds as presented.
The board also approved several routine invoices and vendor actions: the CCAP PCoRP second-installment invoice for $45,442.00; a SAP&DC invoice for local county/transportation support in the amount of $8,598.00; and a renewal quote for ASPIRE two-factor authentication as submitted by Rick Grissinger of Elect IT. Commissioner Hervey P. Hann moved each of those actions and the votes were unanimous.
Commissioner Hervey P. Hann moved to authorize notification to organizations to apply for hotel/motel tax funding once the county receives the fourth-quarter payment.
