Loading...
Summary
The commission approved a $79,189.12 in-house transfer to the EMS Equipment Fund, authorized multiple checks across county funds totaling tens of thousands of dollars, and filed correspondence listing opioid fund requests to various agencies; the opioid requests were recorded for filing, not explicitly approved for payment in the minutes.
At its March 24 meeting the Brooke County Commission approved a $79,189.12 in-house budget transfer to the EMS Equipment Fund and approved vouchers and checks for multiple county funds.
Commissioner Stacey Wise moved to approve the EMS equipment transfer; Commissioner Thomas R. Diserio seconded and the motion passed unanimously. The minutes list an ARPA Project #2 draw of $9,305.82 among correspondence but do not record a separate approval vote for that draw in the minutes.
The commission approved invoices and directed checks to be written across several funds: General County Fund checks 33829–33842 for $32,292.20; E‑911 Communications checks 3676–3679 for $15,578.57; Home Confinement checks 1973–1976 for $2,075.88; Ambulance Service checks 7449–7458 for $6,137.14; County Fire Protection checks 1040–1041 for $12,833.04; Valuation checks 2361–2364 for $6,321.98.
The meeting record also lists multiple opioid fund requests and other funding items submitted in correspondence (for example: Sheriff’s Department $580,000; Health Department $159,784; WVU Medicine $125,000; Empower & Link Inc. $374,015). The minutes state that the above correspondence was ordered filed in the County Clerk’s Office; the record does not show the commission granting final approval to disburse those opioid funds at this meeting.
