Commissioners approve $2.74 million in total disbursements and county payroll

County staff presented multiple disbursement figures and the court approved bills and payroll by motion and voice vote. A staff member read line items for Memorial Medical Center and county transfers: "Total payable to payroll and electronic bank payments, $1,214,061.15," and also listed an aggregate approval amount of $2,744,966.51 for the period ending 08/26/2026. For county vendor payments and payroll the staff member said: "Total vendor disbursements is $1,223,811.29. Payroll of 08/28/2026 is $475,501.32."

Commissioners seconded the motions and approved them by voice vote. Several line items and transfers were listed during the reading (including transfers between funds and multiple project/payment lines). One line in the transcript that appears to reference a contractor payment for HVAC and roof improvements is inconsistent or garbled and should be verified in official payroll/disbursement records before publication.
