Commissioners approve $65,000 shortage reimbursement for sheriff patrol parking lot
Summary
Budget staff said the Sheriff’s Office parking lot finished at about $167,369 versus a budgeted $27,266, leaving roughly a $65,930 shortage; the court voted to move the shortage to the general fund and use tax‑note proceeds and interest to cover costs.
Brianna, county budget staff, told the Commissioner's Court that the parking‑lot finish at the Sheriff’s Office came in substantially above the amount budgeted. She said about $27,266 had been budgeted for the parking lot but the actual cost was about $167,369.45, leaving a shortage of roughly $65,930 that she asked to be covered from the general fund.
Commissioner Walden moved to approve covering the shortage from the general fund; the motion was seconded and carried. Brianna said using tax‑note proceeds and interest already earned would reduce the need to draw additional contingency funds and staff will return if further adjustments are necessary.
