Council approves $25,000 for Fort Jackson Museum displays and climate control upgrades
Summary
Using funds from House Bill 312, the council approved a $25,000 supplemental appropriation for exhibit restoration, climate control and digital upgrades at the Fort Jackson Museum; a staff presenter described intended uses and council approved the item 8–0.
A presenter told the council that $25,000 from House Bill 312 will be used for supplemental appropriations to fund display and exhibit restoration, climate control, artifact preservation and digital interactive upgrades at the Fort Jackson Museum. "The museum falls under the umbrella of the improvements," the presenter said, listing restoration and preservation uses.
Council members asked clarifying questions about the funding source and the presenter said the appropriation can be covered without a separate new funding source because existing budget vacancies can be used. The item was approved on introduction with a recorded vote of 8–0.
