The Beaufort County Council unanimously approved an ordinance on first reading to carry purchase orders and funds into the FY 2025–26 budget.
At the special call meeting, the Chair introduced ordinance 2025/41, saying the fiscal impact "will be increased by $24,000,687" carried over from FY 2025; the transcript includes additional cents that are not clearly transcribed. Ms. Novak was present to answer questions on the item. Vice Chair moved the ordinance, a councilmember seconded, and brief discussion referenced the February finance committee review. A councilmember noted, "Because it's a large number, almost $25,000,000," and the Chair announced the vote was unanimous.
The ordinance was recorded as approved on first reading; the record does not show any amendments or limitations attached to the carryover vote. The council returned to the agenda and later went into executive session for legal advice on the Pine Island development agreement.
