Commission approves surplus of pistol-permit printer; overtime pay motion for sheriff staff fails
Summary
Coosa County commissioners unanimously approved removing a pistol-permit printer from sheriff office inventory (purchase amount $6,611.22) and later rejected a motion to pay overtime to essential sheriff employees who worked Jan. 10 during inclement weather; an executive session followed regarding an employee matter.
The commission voted unanimously on Jan. 14, 2025 to remove a pistol-permit printer (HID Fargo / HDP50, serial #52100B9210403) from the Sheriff's Department inventory as surplus; the minutes record the printer's purchase amount as $6,611.22 and show Jennifer Tindall submitted the inventory form.
Later in the meeting a motion to pay overtime to essential Sheriff Department employees who worked on Jan. 10 during an inclement-weather day failed (minutes state "NO MOTION TO PAY OVERTIME ... MOTION FAILED"). Following that action Commissioner Bertha K. McElrath moved to enter executive session "for good name and charter of an employee," the commission went into and later exited executive session by unanimous motion. The minutes do not provide the overtime vote tally or further details from the executive session, which is recorded only by motion.
