Summary

Commissioners authorized a $645 payment to replace batteries and perform minor maintenance on a borrowed mobile command center; the expense was charged to the public safety (sheriff) budget, according to the transcript.

Staff (Speaker 3) reported a borrowed mobile command center used for covered-bridge events needed battery replacements and minor maintenance, stating it "needed battery replacements and a few minor little maintenance items for 645." Chair (Speaker 1) said the cost should come from the public-safety/sheriff budget and later confirmed the expense would be paid to cover the batteries.

The transcript indicates the county approved the $645 expense; no detailed vendor contract or invoice number is recorded in the excerpt. The chair asked that the public-safety budget cover it and the meeting moved on after noting approval.

Why this matters: the mobile command center supports public-safety operations at county events; the fiscal impact is modest but the expense signals interagency cooperation and equipment readiness.
