Grant County approves budget amendment to create capital outlay codes and reallocate funds
Summary
The Grant County Quorum Court on June 17 approved Appropriation Ordinance 2024-06 to amend the 2024 budget (original ordinance 2023-14), reallocating funds now rather than at year‑end and creating new expenditure codes separating Capital Outlay from Repairs; the vote was 9–0.
The Grant County Quorum Court approved Appropriation Ordinance 2024‑06 on June 17, 2024, amending the county’s annual budget to move funds now instead of waiting until the end of the year and to create new expenditure codes distinguishing Capital Outlay from Repairs. Treasurer Tim Stuckey explained the measure to the court.
The ordinance amends the original appropriation ordinance 2023‑14 (the 2024 annual budget for Grant County). Justice Jim Easley moved approval and Justice Danny Bone seconded; the court recorded a unanimous vote of 9 for, 0 against. The minutes show the action as an approval of the ordinance during the regular meeting.
Treasurer Tim Stuckey also explained Court Order 2024‑29 to the court, stating that the approved 2023 annual budget authorizes the County Judge to move monies and that the order corrects expenditure codes in the 2023 budget annex. The minutes present this as an explanatory item; they do not record a separate vote on Court Order 2024‑29.
The court also accepted the May 20, 2024 minutes and the month’s financial statement earlier in the meeting. Justice Mike Nevens moved to accept both documents (minutes motion seconded by Justice Jason Roshto; financial statement seconded by Justice Mark Allen), and both motions carried on recorded 9–0 votes.
The minutes do not specify dollar amounts, specific line items changed, vendor names, or implementation dates for projects funded under the new codes. The record shows the court approved the ordinance and that Treasurer Stuckey provided the budget rationale; any subsequent administrative transfers or procurements will proceed under the amended appropriation rules and applicable county procedures.
