Barbour County commission approves budget amendments, pay registers and small contracts totaling routine county business
Summary
The commission approved pay registers totaling $1,481,011.67, multiple FY25 budget amendments related to senior-centers and public buildings, awarded a $7,350 tree-cutting contract for jail repairs, and authorized a flat $40/hour pay arrangement for deputies working the Contraband Interdiction project.
At its April 14 meeting, the Barbour County Commission approved financial items including pay registers for February and March 2026 and budget amendments to reallocate costs from a terminated Clio Senior Center CDBG to the Public Building, Roads and Bridges Fund and to record Clayton Senior Center air-conditioning expenses in that fund.
The minutes list detailed fund check ranges and report a total of $1,481,011.67 for the pay-register period March 1–31, 2026. Commissioner Jason Bennett moved to approve the consent agenda (which included the pay registers); the motion carried.
The commission also voted to award a quote for storm-damaged tree cutting at the Barbour County Jail to Red’s Tree Service for $7,350 (motion by Commissioner Jason Bennett, seconded by Commissioner Karen Collins) and authorized a flat $40-per-hour pay rate (no overtime) for deputies performing work under the Alabama Department of Corrections Contraband Interdiction project (motion by Commissioner Eric Pomeroy). Multiple FY25 budget amendments tied to senior center accounting were approved unanimously.
These actions were recorded as routine financial and administrative measures; no contested votes or dissenting remarks appear in the minutes.
