Council approves July first-half vouchers after removing a $7,215 Skamania County charge
Summary
Council approved July first-half vouchers totaling $44,552.48 after removing an erroneously included $7,215 invoice for the Skamania County Clerk; CAO Chambers said the invoice should have been voided.
Councilors approved the July first-half vouchers on July 14, 2026, after removing an incorrectly included $7,215 invoice for the Skamania County Clerk.
Councilmember Jeff Blakeley identified the item on the vouchers and asked that the vouchers be pulled from the consent agenda for discussion. CAO Chambers confirmed the Skamania County Clerk invoice should have been voided and that a step was missed in the accounts-payable process, which led the system to mark the invoice as outstanding. On motion by Councilmember Jeff Blakeley, seconded by Councilmember Emily Sabo, the council approved the vouchers in the amount of $44,552.48 (4-0).
Council also approved the minutes of the June 23 meeting in the same portion of the agenda and directed staff to amend the minutes to correct a clerical error noting an earlier abstention by Councilmember Sabo.
