Lawrence County officials told the prison board that elevator repair parts have been ordered and some supplies received; the board reviewed a revenue report showing $1,769,000 expected as of Dec. 1, 2025, and moved to approve bills on the agenda.
County and jail officials updated the Lawrence County Prison Board on elevator repairs and the facility’s fiscal position during the Dec. 4, 2025 meeting.
A jail official said the vendor had ordered parts and supplies needed to proceed with elevator repairs and that purchase orders are in place and some parts have started to arrive. "We have POs for those," the official said, and added that while the process has been long, it is now moving forward.
On finance, an official reported expected revenue as of Dec. 1, 2025 of $1,769,000, which combines collected revenue and outstanding receivables and does not include anticipated revenue for November. The speaker said the county hopes to reach a $2,000,000 total target.
The board moved to approve the bills on the agenda; a motion and second were recorded and the chair indicated the motion carried in the proceedings. The transcript records the motion and second but does not show a detailed roll-call tally for the bill approval in the public exchange provided.
No additional budget allocations, vendor names, contract amounts, or completion dates for the elevator repairs were specified in the public transcript; purchase order numbers were mentioned but not read into the record.
