Information

Agenda Item

Consider approving a line item transfer for the Elections Department.

Background

For use during each election, cell phones are checked out to early voting and election day poll workers and technical/site support personnel. Additionally, a cell phone reimbursement fee of $10.00 may be paid to electon day judges who use their personal cell phones to conduct county business on election day. This procedure provides our department with a means of communicating with these election workers out in the field. Funds are needed to acquire cell phones and minutes and, if needed, to pay the cell phone reimbursement fee. Funds in the Original Budget of $300.00 were all used for the November election. We checked with T-Mobile, Verizon, and AT&T for the best rates for both phones and minutes. T-Mobile was the most economical. This requested transfer will pay cell phone expenses for the rest of the elections held this fiscal year.
