Riley County commissioners approve single office purchasing card
Summary
The Riley County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously Aug. 10 to approve a single purchasing card to be kept in the county office to centralize departmental purchases, after staff explained the change will reduce multiple individual cards and clean up current purchasing practices.
Riley County commissioners voted unanimously Aug. 10 to approve a purchasing‑card request that will centralize departmental buying under a single generic card maintained in the county office.
The request was introduced during the meeting when the clerk asked for a motion on the Riley County purchase‑card request. A county staff member described the plan as "It's actually just like a generic purchasing card that they will keep in the office," explaining the card is intended for shared departmental use rather than multiple individual cards dispersed among staff. Commissioners asked how many cards currently existed and discussed earlier efforts to reduce the total number of cards issued to county employees.
One commissioner moved to approve the Raleigh County P card request "as presented," the motion was seconded and carried on a voice vote. The board did not record a roll-call tally; the approval was unanimous in the voice vote noted on the record.
