Commissioner Macht commented that any failure is on the part of the State which <br />should have made a statewide purchase and gotten a uniform price. <br />County Administrator Chandler noted that there is another item for consideration <br />which is the manner of funding. An item will be brought to the Board dealing with <br />reprioritizing sales tax funds as well as gas tax revenues at a later time. He did not have <br />sufficient information at this time to make a recommendation and the Legislative meeting <br />later this week will also possibly affect our capital or operating budgets, or both. <br />Commissioner Adams felt that Option 3 appears to have the least impact on the <br />contingency fund. <br />Chairman Ginn questioned whether the general fund was involved, and Mr. Chandler <br />responded that these funds are all within the optional sales tax programs, not the operating <br />budget. <br />Chainnan Ginn questioned the unencumbered balance of the contingency fund at this <br />time, and Assistant County Administrator Joe Baird responded that there is no <br />unencumbered balance. There is a cash balance of $30,000 but last year that fund was <br />eliminated in the first 2 months of the budget year. <br />Chairman Ginn favored Option 2 as it only requires $11,000 out of contingency. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Macht, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Tippin, the Board, <br />by a 4-1 vote (Commissioner Adams opposed) <br />approved the contract with Sequoia Voting System <br />for the purchase of the AVC Edge Electronic Voting <br />System, as recommended. <br />OCTOBER 23, 2001 <br />-28- <br />Oft <br />ft S �� :�� {�l� �i.,iCl <br />
