Board adopts budget amendment to fund jail locking system and related line items
Summary
Charlotte County supervisors approved a budget amendment that formalized funding for a multi‑year service agreement for the county jail locking system and other amended line items after staff clarified amounts in the meeting packet.
Chairman David called the board into a public hearing on a proposed budget amendment that included a five‑year service agreement for the county's jail locking system. Planning and finance staff had placed the quote from MCA in the packet showing annual amounts that rise from $8,407 to $12,238; staff cited a five‑year contract total of $52,082.99 and separately noted a system figure reported in the packet as $256,888.95.
A board member moved to appropriate funds for the budget amendment; the motion was seconded. Following procedural discussion about other amended line items, the board adopted the amendment by roll call with the supervisors present answering in the affirmative. The administrator noted the packet contains the full breakdown of amended line items and that staff will reflect the full amendment in the next budget update.
