Board authorizes payment of bills and approves $15,000 tub-grinding payment; transcript records a bill-amount discrepancy
Summary
Supervisors authorized payment of unpaid bills and approved a $15,000 payment to Hopewell Farms for tub grinding; the minutes list two different unpaid-bill totals ($226,247.10 and $226,547.10) and the article notes the discrepancy for public transparency.
Treasurer Cynthia O'Donnell reported unpaid bills and asked the board to authorize payment. The minutes first record unpaid bills totaling $226,247.10, then record a motion authorizing payment of $226,547.10; the board approved payment and later unanimously approved a $15,000 payment to Hopewell Farms for tub grinding. The 2024 audit is complete and staff continue work on a USDA loan.
The transcript contains the numeric discrepancy between the initially stated unpaid-bills figure and the amount recorded in the motion. The article flags that inconsistency for transparency; the board's motions as recorded in the meeting minutes show the higher amount was the one authorized in the vote.
