Deer Park council approves February vouchers and payroll totaling $289,916.03
Summary
On March 4 the Deer Park City Council approved voucher claim checks and payroll for February 2026: $117,400.51 in voucher claims and $172,515.52 in payroll, enacted as part of the consent agenda on a single 6-0 motion.
The council approved the consent agenda on a single motion that included voucher claim check nos. 43678 through 43709 and corresponding EFT debits totaling $117,400.51 for the second half of February 2026, and payroll check nos. 16237 through 16269 including taxes and benefits totaling $172,515.52 for February 2026. The consent agenda motion (moved by Jason Upchurch and seconded by Ellen Standen) carried 6-0.
Combined, the two items amount to $289,916.03. The minutes record the motion and the recorded totals but do not break down individual line items or departments funded by the payroll and vouchers. Council treated the consent agenda as a single, bundled action rather than isolating individual claims or payroll items for separate votes.
Why it matters: Routine voucher and payroll approvals authorize city expenditures and payroll processing; the consent agenda ensures continuity of city operations and payroll services.
