Commissioners authorize $5,000 budget‑assistance payment for 'Jackie'
Summary
The board authorized a $5,000 contract to retain 'Jackie' for budget assistance, historically paid in two installments; commissioners approved using riverboat professional services funds and voted unanimously.
Ohio County commissioners approved a $5,000 payment to a contractor referred to as "Jackie" to assist with the county's budget preparation, a continuation of prior-year arrangements. The board discussed payment timing (two $2,500 installments) and agreed to take the amount from the riverboat professional-services line, which has budgeted funds for Baker Tilly and contracted assistance.
"It's $5,000," a staff speaker (S1) said while summarizing the contract amount. Commissioner (speaker 4) moved to take the amount from the riverboat professional services line; the motion was passed unanimously on a voice vote. Commissioners noted that next year accounting changes (an auditor candidate was mentioned) may shift where such payments are booked.
