Summary
Prosecutor Chris Lane requested $27,000 to replenish expense lines drained by a three-week trial for Isaiah Page; the council approved the request unanimously to cover expert witnesses, equipment maintenance and supplies.
Floyd County Prosecutor Chris Lane told the council that a three-week trial for Isaiah Page had depleted several expense lines, and requested $27,000 in additional appropriations across five categories: expert witnesses $9,000; equipment maintenance and repair $4,000; computer supplies $7,000; miscellaneous supplies $3,400; and printing and stationery $3,600. Council member Denise Konkle moved to approve the full $27,000 and the motion carried unanimously.
