Commissioners approve administrative policies, grant applications and procurement items
Summary
The board approved a county allowable-cost policy tied to a State Board of Accounts audit, authorized submission of a Partners Addiction Response Grant application (up to $30,000), approved a copier purchase for Purdue Extension, and accepted the Baker Tilly annual disclosure; the commissioners also approved an updated longevity plan.
Daviess County commissioners approved a set of administrative items including a policy to address audit findings, a grant application, routine procurement, and HR updates.
S5 (Jen) summarized the county allowable-cost policy — drafted after a State Board of Accounts audit identified missing documentation — saying the policy affirms that federal-grant spending will follow what the grants authorize. Commissioners moved and approved adoption of the policy.
S8 (Laura) requested permission to apply for the Justice Partners Addictions Response Grant, an eighth-year funding opportunity with applications due July 29 and awards up to $30,000. "I'm going to request up to that amount and we may not get that, but that's what I'm gonna request," she said. The board approved applying for the grant.
S9 (Cindy) presented a purchase and service agreement to replace the Purdue Extension office's combined printer/copier/scanner; commissioners voted to approve the purchase and service agreement.
The board also reviewed and approved the Baker Tilly annual disclosure/fiscal-year report and voted to approve an updated longevity plan to align HR classifications and retirement/IRA correspondence with county policy. Several motions were approved by recorded 'aye' votes during the meeting; the transcript does not show a complete roll-call of individual commissioner votes for every item.
