Board approves three appropriations including $10,000 STEM grant for schools
Summary
The board approved appropriation requests: $10,000 to the school division for a STEM competition grant, $5,193.20 reimbursement to the Circuit Court Clerk for a records-management system, and an emergency-services grant appropriation tied to a regional award; votes recorded in the meeting.
The finance report included three appropriation requests that the board approved. Speaker 13 recommended the county appropriate $10,000 in grant funds awarded to Cumberland County Public Schools for the STEM Plus C competition; the funds have been received and require no county match. "It is my recommendation that the board approves the appropriation request in the amount of $10,000 to Cumberland County Public Schools," the speaker said.
The board also approved a reimbursement appropriation of $5,193.20 to the Circuit Court Clerk (Deidre Martin) for the department's records-management system to cover FY 2026 costs. A third item involved emergency-services funding: the transcript lists a total available award amount of $16,677.90 administered through a regional program and references a departmental award figure and an allocation (transcribed as $1,870) to the Department of Emergency Services for FY 2026. Each appropriation was moved, seconded and recorded with vocal approval during the meeting.
