Cleveland County OKs multimillion-dollar allocations for highway districts and bridge projects
Summary
The Budget Board approved allocations for Highway Districts 1–3 as part of the lapsed-appropriation package, including multi-hundred-thousand personnel budgets and bridge-and-road improvement funds exceeding $1.7 million and $1.9 million for Districts 2 and 3 respectively.
The Cleveland County Budget Board's June 24 motion included substantial funding for the county's highway districts. The approvals list District 2 Bridge & Road Improvement at $1,773,043.80 and District 3 Bridge & Road Improvement at $1,962,767.01, along with multiple personnel, M&O and capital outlay lines for Districts 1, 2 and 3.
District 1 entries in the motion included CIRB-MV line items and capital outlay requests; District 2's package listed personnel services of $402,808.22, capital outlay of $553,815.82 and two CIRB-MV entries (one at $422,315.43 and another at $347,048.36). District 3's M&O and capital outlay lines also totalled into the hundreds of thousands, with specific CIRB-MV entries of $123,120.22 and $94,770.62 recorded in the minutes.
The highway allocations were approved as part of the single bundled motion moved by Member Jacob McHughes and seconded by Member Marilyn Williams; the minutes record no separate discussion or roll-call contention for these line items.
The board's recorded vote on the bundle was unanimous among the six members present.
