Court adopts emergency appropriation ordinance amending 2026 budget

The clerk read by title an emergency appropriation ordinance described as "Crawford County, Arkansas emergency ordinance 20 26 dash 10," which would amend budget ordinance 2025-33 to appropriate additional funds and approve additional expenditures for the 2026 county budget. A motion to approve was made, seconded, and the clerk reported the result as "9 yes, 1 no, 3 absent," after which the presiding officer declared the ordinance passed.

"Crawford County, Arkansas emergency ordinance 20 26 dash 10.
