Summary

The committee approved a $475,679.67 transfer to the Highway Department to cover equipment purchases (tractors, trucks) paid from the wrong budget year after delayed deliveries; County Engineer Matt Miller explained the transfer.

County Highway Engineer Matt Miller explained that new tractors and pickup trucks delivered late were paid from the current year's budget even though they were approved in the 2025 budget year. "The total is $475,679.67," Miller said, and the committee approved transferring that amount to correct the accounting.

Miller said the transfer reimburses the current-year operating account so the 2025 capital approvals are reflected in the proper fiscal year. The committee approved the transfer by voice vote.
