                                                                                                Report and Discussion 
Background: 

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) reviews the bills and vouchers printout, submitted for approval during the January 27th meeting, the morning of Monday, January 26, 2026.  If, for any reason, any of these bills are not recommended for approval, OMB will notify the Board.

Analysis: 

Since the next regular meeting is scheduled for February 10, 2026, it is advisable for the Board to pre-approve payment of the County's bills for January 28, 2026, through February 9, 2026, so that vendors and service providers will not experience hardship because of delays in payment.  In the event the Board meeting is cancelled, the payment of bills/vouchers will be approved until the next scheduled meeting.  OMB will continue to review the printouts prior to payment; if for any reason OMB questions payment, then payment will be withheld until an inquiry is made and satisfied, or until the next scheduled Board meeting.  Copies of the bills/vouchers printout will be available in OMB for review. 

Options: 

  1. Approve the payment of bills and vouchers submitted for January 27, 2026, and the pre-approval of payment of bills and vouchers for the period of January 28, 2026, through February 9, 2026. 

  1. Do not approve the payment of bills and vouchers submitted for January 27, 2026, and the pre-approval of payment of bills and vouchers for the period of January 28, 2026, through February 9, 2026. 

  1. Board direction. 

Recommendation:
