Tunica County supervisors approve transfers between 911 and general fund

Tunica County supervisors voted to approve transfers between the county’s 911 account and the general fund during their meeting.

Staff member (Speaker 3) presented Item 7, asking the board to authorize a transfer recorded in the transcript as "$3,666 and $50.54" from the 911 bank account to the general fund and $7,889.38 from the general fund to the 911 bank account. Chair (Speaker 1) called for a motion; the request was moved, seconded and carried by voice vote.

The board did not record a roll-call tally in the transcript; members indicated approval by saying “Aye” and the chair declared the motion carried. The transcript’s formatting of the first amount is ambiguous; the county clerk or finance office should be consulted for the exact accounting entry and cents breakdown.

The action will shift the specified amounts between the two accounts to align appropriation or cash-balance needs, according to the staff presentation. No further discussion or conditions were noted on the record. The board proceeded to the next agenda item after the vote.
