Cole County approves routine contracts, budget adjustment and tax-surplus payout
Summary
At its April 21 meeting the commission approved a title-search contract, accounts payable, a $191,055 EMS budget adjustment and a $67,737.09 tax-sale surplus payout; the tax-surplus check and accounts-payable approvals were routine motions recorded on the agenda.
Cole County commissioners on April 21 approved several routine financial and administrative items, including a new contract for title and lien searches, accounts payable, an EMS budget amendment and the release of tax-sale surplus funds.
The commission approved a professional services agreement with Cole County Abstract and Title Company to provide lien and title search services for the collector’s office; staff cited per-record fees of $200 for a record information report and $125 for an updated report. The board also voted to approve accounts payable pending review.
In a second-and-final reading, the commission approved budget adjustment No. 3 for the EMS enterprise fund to cover a 27th payroll period in the amount of $191,055.
The board also authorized issuance of a check for $67,737.09 to remit surplus proceeds from a tax sale redemption on parcel 4-01-12-0004-002-003, as requested by the collector/treasurer. Staff said supporting documentation would be provided as requested.
These items were passed by voice vote during the meeting; the transcript records motions and verbal "ayes" but does not include a recorded roll-call tally for each vote.
Next steps: staff will process the contracts, post the budget amendment and issue the surplus check per authorization.
