Veteran services will roll $17,476 forward for outreach and waiting-area improvements
Summary
Veteran services asked the board to roll $17,476 from an awarded $20,000 grant into this fiscal year to fund waiting-area improvements, advertising and outreach; the board approved the rollover and staff said the grant was extended to Dec. 31.
Veteran services staff told the board they were awarded a $20,000 grant from the North Carolina Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, that not all funds could be spent in FY26, and that they received an extension through Dec. 31. The presenter asked to roll $17,476 into the current budget for uses that include revamping office furniture, expanding advertising to raise awareness of services and purchasing supplies.
Commissioners asked about the specific uses and whether proposed advertising venues were appropriate; staff said they had considered local outlets and billboards and would look at multiple avenues. A motion to roll the funds over passed on roll call.
