Russell County fiscal court approved a series of fund transfers and a large grant pass-through during its Aug. 10 meeting. The court approved a $60,000 drawdown transfer to the sheriff's office, a $10,000 transfer tied to an ambulance grant, a $100,000 transfer from the general fund to the jail fund, a $350,000 transfer from the road fund to the general fund for Tony Slon Way road work, and a $1,210,272.50 pass-through for an IDA state grant.

Each transfer was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote. Procedural language was standard — the chair called for those "in favor" to signify by saying "aye" — and members recorded no roll-call tallies in the public minutes. The court noted the IDA funds are pass-through monies and not county discretionary funds.
