Lincoln County adopts Resolution 2026-58 to reallocate funds and advance EWP buyouts
Summary
The Board unanimously adopted Resolution 2026-58 to recognize grant funding, reallocate appropriations, and support disaster recovery; the resolution moves $2,000,000 from the Disaster Fund to commence EWP buyouts and adjusts spending to reflect a $7.5 million reimbursement that has not yet been received.
Treasurer Sherrie Huddleston presented Resolution 2026-58 to the Board on May 12, explaining the measure would recognize grant funding, reallocate appropriations, and adjust departmental expenditures to support capital improvements and disaster recovery initiatives.
Huddleston described moving $2,000,000 from the Disaster Fund to begin EWP buyouts and said the county had not yet received a $7.5 million reimbursement previously budgeted; the resolution reduces the corresponding expenditure line to reflect actual receipts and avoid overextension until reimbursements are received. Manager Burns reviewed procurement timing for SB31-funded road projects and noted prioritization of purchases pending expected reimbursements.
Commissioner Samantha J. Serna moved to adopt Resolution 2026-58 and Commissioner Kendal Wilson seconded; the motion carried by unanimous roll call vote (Yes = 5). The resolution is recorded in the meeting materials as Exhibit A.
