Pulaski County commissioners approve payroll and two vendor payments

Pulaski County commissioners approved payroll number 17 and moved to authorize two vendor payments during their meeting.

Prosecutor Kelly Donner asked the board to approve payment of the county’s share of a Celbrite invoice that performs cellphone forensic downloads. The total invoice was stated as $9,292.50; the prosecutor said the county’s half was available in her office’s budget and requested permission to pay the portion that exceeded $2,500. "The whole amount is $9,292.50," she said. Commissioners moved, seconded and approved the request by voice vote.

The board also approved paying $5,000 for two 'block' cameras (two of eight county-wide units at $2,500 each) that the prosecutor said her office is helping the sheriff’s department fund. "Motion and a second to approve the $5,000 for block cameras," a commissioner announced before the item passed by voice vote.

No roll-call tallies with named votes were recorded in the transcript; actions were recorded as approved by voice vote. The transcript does not specify departmental budget lines used for the payments.

Next steps: the items will be processed per county finance procedures and checks issued as authorized by the board.
