Commissioners authorize purchases to clear negative PHEP balance: shed $20,000, pickup $12,230.24
Summary
Facing a PHEP fund deficit of just over $32,000, Garfield County commissioners approved buying the PHEP shed for $20,000 and a PHEP pickup for $12,230.24, with the General Fund paying the PHEP Fund to clear the negative balance.
Clerk Charlie Saylor reported that the PHEP (Public Health Emergency Preparedness) account was "just over negative $32,000," prompting discussion of options to clear the deficit. Sherlie Hains and staff were working on separate statements to release funds, but the board voted to have the General Fund purchase two PHEP assets to reconcile the account: the PHEP shed for $20,000 and the PHEP pickup for $12,230.24.
Commissioner Collins moved to purchase the shed for $20,000 with a second from Vice-Chair McWilliams; the motion carried unanimously. Vice-Chair McWilliams moved to purchase the pickup for $12,230.24 with a second from Collins; that motion also passed. Both actions were recorded as General Fund payments to the PHEP Fund to clear the negative balance and were entered into the minutes as carried.
