Camden County approves two resolutions affecting the 2024 current fund budget

The Camden County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to adopt two resolutions affecting the 2024 current fund budget after a brief presentation during a special meeting.

Deputy Director McDonald presented the measures, saying, "Resolution 1 authorizes budgetary transfers in the 2024 current fund budget," and "Resolution 2 authorizes the cancellation of appropriations in the 2024 current fund budget." The clerk then called the roll; each commissioner and the named staff members present voted in favor.

Why it matters: The measures adjust how the county’s 2024 current fund is allocated. The meeting record does not specify dollar amounts, line-item details, or which departments are affected; those details were not provided in the presentation.

What happened: After McDonald’s presentation, a motion to adopt the two resolutions was made and the clerk conducted a roll call. Commissioners Al Dyer, Kane, Nash, Redridge and John Young, together with Deputy Director McDonald and the individual identified in the transcript as "Mister Capelli," answered "Yes." The chair then stated that both resolutions were passed.

Public participation and procedure: No members of the public indicated a desire to speak during the public portion; Commissioner John Young moved to close that portion and Commissioner Al Dyer seconded the motion. Following adoption of the resolutions the board closed the public portion once more and adjourned the meeting.

Next steps: The transcript does not record implementation steps, departmental allocations, or effective dates for the budgetary transfers or cancellations. Those details were not specified and would require follow-up with county finance staff for documentation and supporting schedules.
