Commissioner Wheeler commented that he would like to see the Sheriff’s office <br />emulate the County Commission, where every budgeted item is accounted for. He wanted the <br />Sheriff’s office to provide a close accounting of funds needed in each category, and then have <br />additional funding requests for specific items. <br /> <br />Administrator Baird requested that Mr. Hall come back to the Board with specific <br />information regarding the locations and amounts of the transferred funds. Mr. Baird noted that <br />this would be an estimate. <br /> <br />MOTION was made by Commissioner Davis, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Flescher, to approve the <br />Sheriff’s request to amend the 2006-2007 fiscal year <br />Operating Budget. <br /> <br />Vice Chair Bowden supported the Motion. <br /> <br />Chairman Wheeler was concerned that the Board has a fiduciary responsibility to <br />oversee the Sheriff’s budget, and that the policies and procedures set forth regarding this were not <br />being followed. <br /> <br />The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the Board, <br />by a 3-2 vote (Chairman Wheeler & Commissioner <br />O’Bryan opposed), approved the Sheriff’s request to <br />amend the 2006-2007 fiscal year Operating Budget. <br /> <br />Commissioner Davis clarified that the Sheriff’s Department was authorized to move <br />forward, but would return with an accounting of the fund distributions and allocations. <br /> <br />9.PUBLIC ITEMS <br /> <br />May 15, 2007 9 <br /> <br />
