Council approves three additional appropriations for highway, solid waste and health
Summary
The Washington County Council voted to approve three additional appropriations: a $1,000,000 Community Crossings highway award (county match budgeted), a solid waste equipment repair/purchase appropriation, and a $2,249 reconciliation for the health department's local public health funds.
Michelle, speaking on appropriations, told the Washington County Council there were three additional appropriation requests before the board: a highway bridge/repair item tied to the Community Crossings award, a solid waste district request for equipment repair or replacement, and a $2,249 reconciliation for the health department’s local public-health funding totaling the difference between budgeted and actual state disbursement.
The council took separate motions and approved each additional appropriation by voice/hand vote. The chair later noted the highway department had been awarded the maximum $1,000,000 from the Community Crossings program to support a $1,500,000 paving project and that the county’s $500,000 share had already been set aside in the budget.
Council members asked no substantive follow-up questions on the appropriations and the measures passed during the meeting.
