Alleghany County approves $380,260 pass-through for Glade Creek Elementary roof
Summary
The Alleghany County Board unanimously approved a budget amendment to accept $380,260 in lottery funding and immediately pass that money through to the school system to repair Glade Creek Elementary School's roof.
The Alleghany County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to accept $380,260 in lottery funds and remit the full amount to the county school system for repairs to the Glade Creek Elementary School roof.
Finance staff introduced the item, describing the allocation as a pass-through handled through the county's normal accounts-payable process. "We're gonna receive the $380,260," the finance staff said, noting the county would write a check back out to the school system during the regular AP process. After a motion to approve was made and seconded, the board recorded a voice vote of 5–0 in favor.
The amendment was described as a straightforward grant acceptance and pass-through rather than a county-funded capital project; finance staff said the county would only receive and disburse the funds. The board did not attach further conditions to the transfer. The board's approval clears the way for the school system to begin or contract for the necessary roof work once it receives the funds.
Next steps: finance will accept the lottery funds and process payment to the school system through the county's standard AP workflow. No timeline for construction was provided at the meeting.
