Commissioners approve advertising to spend carryover health and preparedness funds for equipment and signage
Summary
The commission approved advertising for several carryover funds and grant balances to purchase laptops, printers, a preparedness coordinator laptop and to complete a digital sign, citing carryovers including $5,246.85 and $22,101.72.
A presenter (Speaker 6) asked the commissioners to advertise requests to move several carryover and grant funds for health and preparedness purchases, and the board approved the advertising.
The presenter outlined a set of requests: an emergency-response survey fund of $1,000; using pandemic-related carryover funds (described in the transcript as an "Ebola grama") with a remaining balance of $5,246.85 for laptops and printers; and $22,101.72 from a Health First Indiana carryover to pay the remainder on a digital sign at the new office. A smaller carryover of $1,238.74 was requested for promotional and education materials.
"The amount of that is $5,246.85," the presenter said of the pandemic carryover. He also said the $22,101.72 was the last part of the digital-sign bill.
Commissioners moved to advertise the requests and the motion was approved.
The advertising step begins the public-notice process required before final appropriations; the board did not yet authorize final purchases at the meeting.
