Summary

The commission approved reallocating $2,547.31 from Tracey Master's contract to Jarrah Medina to fund direct domestic violence services after Miss Masters said invoicing and payments were delayed; the transfer corrects a prior effective-date clerical error.

County Manager Jordan Barela explained that two contracts previously funded domestic violence services: one for strategic planning and development (Tracey Master) and one for direct services (Jarrah Medina). Barela reported Miss Masters met her obligations and elected to liquidate the remaining $2,547.31 in her contract and reallocate it to Miss Medina to support ongoing front-line services.

Miss Masters raised administrative concerns about delayed invoicing and procurement processes, saying invoices were processed late (for example, a March invoice processed after mailing in early March) and that she preferred not to submit further invoices. She said she would remain available informally through June but would stop invoicing; commissioners thanked her for service and approved Amendment No.1 and an effective-date clerical correction from November 10, 2026 to November 10, 2025.
