Summary

Staff asked to raise the office-supplies line to $3,000 after basement flooding required replacing filing cabinets; vehicle maintenance will be relabeled to include fuel. The committee approved these practical adjustments.

Staff member (S2) told the committee the office basement was flooded this year and they had to replace filing cabinets and reorganize files, which led to higher office-supplies spending; S2 recommended increasing the line from $2,500 to $3,000 "just to be on the safe side."

Committee members also discussed vehicle fleet changes and sales of older county vehicles; the group agreed to relabel the vehicle line to include fuel so the budget more accurately reflects gas and tire expenses. The committee approved the packet with those modest adjustments.
