Disability board approves $14,009.94 final invoice, asks HR to verify hours

The Disability Board approved a final invoice of $14,009.94 after returning from a closed session, and directed human resources to review the staffing hours on the invoice for accuracy.

HR analyst Matt Middleton read the motion on behalf of staff, saying the board should "approve the final invoice of $14,009.94, with the knowledge that HR will review all hours submitted on the invoice for accuracy, and we'll reconvene if there's any changes that need to be considered." Recording secretary Cheryl Allman moved the motion and the chair seconded; the motion carried by voice vote.

The board did not record a roll-call tally for the vote. According to Middleton, the approval is conditional: HR will review the submitted hours and the board will reconvene if discrepancies are found. "We'll reconvene if there's any changes that need to be considered," Middleton said as he read the motion.

Members also confirmed scheduling and staffing follow-ups. The board set its next meeting for March 12, 2026. Members asked staff to provide a brief check-in at that meeting on efforts to fill the vacancy for the law-enforcement representative on the committee. Middleton said he would work with payroll and staff member Michelle to compile a list of potential candidates and bring any nominees back to the committee for a vote.

During roll call, attendees identified themselves as recording secretary Cheryl Allman, Jim Tuggle, HR analyst Matt Middleton, Rick Sapp, (the transcript lists "Council member Peter, Gary"), and Angela Jefferson. No members of the public were present in person or online for the public comment period.

With no further business, the board adjourned by voice vote.
