Summary

At its Oct. 2 meeting the Hamilton County ARPA Committee unanimously approved paying ARPA audit costs and reclassified $250,000 (affordable housing) and $327,500 (broadband) to revenue reduction; motions carried on motions moved by Commissioner Christine Altman and seconded by Sue Maki.

Hamilton County’s ARPA Committee approved several administrative actions on Oct. 2, moving routine accounting and audit items forward.

Commissioner Christine Altman moved to allocate $11,704.09 plus $9,600.01 to pay for the federal ARPA audit; County Councilor Sue Maki seconded and the motion carried unanimously. Altman then moved to reclassify a $250,000 Affordable Housing funding allocation to revenue reduction, and later to reclassify a $327,500 Broadband allocation to revenue reduction; both motions were seconded by Maki and carried unanimously.

Votes and procedure: Each motion was recorded as "motion carried unanimously"; the committee did not record individual roll‑call votes in the transcript. The motions clear routine accounting items and allow staff to proceed with planned bookkeeping and any required transfers.

What's next: Staff will submit transfer paperwork for council consideration (Mills indicated paperwork had not yet been submitted and would be requested at the November council meeting). The committee set a follow‑up ARPA meeting for Oct. 14 to continue discussion about remaining allocations and project obligations.
