Commissioners approve $1,000 supplemental airport repair claim; county to seek 90% reimbursement
Summary
Limestone County commissioners approved a roughly $1,000 supplemental payment to cover unforeseen airport parts, with staff saying the county will seek about 90% reimbursement and use the airport bank account to cover the up-front cost.
Limestone County commissioners voted to approve a supplemental payment to cover additional parts discovered during recent airport repairs. The chair said the extra parts cost about $1,000 and that the county will submit a reimbursement request expected to recover roughly 90% of the expense.
County staff told the board there was no budget line specifically for the additional parts but that the airport bank account had sufficient funds to cover the one-time charge. ‘‘It was just a couple extra parts that they needed. I think that total was $1,000 and then we’ll submit the reimbursement — we’ll get 90% of that back,’’ a staff member said during the discussion.
A commissioner made a motion to approve the supplemental claim, and the motion was seconded. The transcript records a voice vote sequence but does not include a roll-call tally; the board moved to record the action and proceed to the next agenda item.
The decision keeps the airport repair on schedule without drawing from the general fund, according to staff. The county did not specify the vendor or provide a detailed invoice amount beyond the approximate $1,000 figure.
