Chester County commission approves school and county fund budget amendments, adjourns special call

At a special call meeting tonight, the Chester County commission approved budget amendments for the county’s school systems and other county funds and then adjourned.

The chair opened the session with an invocation from Commissioner Luke Weaver and a pledge led by Commissioner Nathan Ward before conducting roll call; the clerk reported "13 present. Five absent," establishing quorum.

On the agenda, the commission considered school-system budget amendments that the budget committee had already reviewed and advanced. The chair called for approval and asked those in favor to "say I." The transcript records the motion passing by voice vote; no roll-call tally was recorded in the transcript.

The body next approved amendments to other county funds, which the chair likewise said had been through the budget committee. That item also passed after the chair asked members to indicate approval verbally.

Late in the meeting a member moved to adjourn. The transcript records "We have a motion by Mike Alexander and second by Andrea Holla." The motion carried and the chair closed the special call, thanking attendees and reminding members that the next commission meeting is July 20.

The meeting record provided no detailed roll-call vote tallies for the budget amendments or the adjournment motion; the transcript indicates both items were handled by voice vote and that committee endorsement preceded the approvals.

No statutes, ordinances, contracting actions, or funding amounts were specified in the transcript.
