Commission approves small senior-van repair, hears Blueway Trail and Change Claiborne updates; appoints new finance director
Summary
The commission approved $369.24 to repair a Senior Citizens Center van, was told grant paperwork for new vans has been submitted, received updates on Blueway Trail grants and activities and learned the Finance Committee appointed Angelia (Angena) Tucker as county Finance Director.
The Claiborne County Commission approved Resolution 2019-002 authorizing $369.24 from undesignated fund balance to repair a 2000 Dodge van owned by the Senior Citizens Center to keep it in safe operating condition.
During updates, Tourism Committee members Don Oakley and Kim Bolton briefed commissioners on fundraising, grants and improvements to improve public access to the Powell River Blueway Trail. Commissioner Steve Mason asked for an update on the status of vans for senior services; County Mayor Joe Brooks said grant paperwork that was missed due to a director change had since been submitted and the county is awaiting state deposit to purchase vans.
Commissioner Whitt Shuford reported that the Finance Committee met and appointed Angelia (spelled "Angena" in some meeting notes) Tucker as the new Claiborne County Finance Director. The transcript records the committee appointment but does not provide salary, start date or specific administrative instructions.
These items were presented as administrative updates; the approved van repair appropriation was charged to undesignated fund balance, while the van purchases discussed are contingent on the state grant deposit and subsequent procurement steps.
