Treasurer Kay Smallwood presented a set of budget amendments and line-item transfers at the Sept. 30 meeting. Items included an $8,000 increase for the library summer reading program (Library'Memorials & Donations), purchase of a Ram 2500 pickup and accessories for Precinct 2 (listed at $19,779.99), purchase of a Mack truck for Precinct 3 (listed at $35,359.19), a $15,000 increase in CVFD capital outlay funded by a decrease to public facilities capital outlay, a $31,000 increase in tipping fees for solid-waste disposal matched by an offsetting decrease to capital outlay, and a $19,000 transfer for airport repairs and maintenance.

Commissioner Dale Schafer moved to approve the budget amendments as presented; Commissioner Tim Alexander seconded and the motion carried unopposed. The minutes list the line items and amounts but do not include contract numbers or vendor names for the vehicle purchases; county procurement records will carry that detail.
