Commissioners approve $38.99 million in claims; auditor flags out-of-county voucher
Summary
The board approved claims totaling $38,999,698.33; Commissioner Kellie Streeter questioned an out-of-county payment and reminded staff to prioritize local vendors.
Knox County Commissioners approved claims totaling $38,999,698.33 during the July 7 meeting. Commissioner Kellie E. Streeter raised a question about a payment voucher that was outside the county and reminded staff to use local vendors; the motion to approve claims was moved by Streeter, seconded by Timothy Ellerman, and passed 2-0.
The minutes record the total dollar amount approved but do not provide a line-item breakdown or identify the specific out-of-county vendor that concerned the auditor. The record shows the board approved the claims as presented; any follow-up or vendor-specific inquiries would require review of the county's claims register or auditor records.
