The recent trip of an Adams County supervisor to Hollywood was a success, he said.

Supervisor Samuel Cauthen gave a report on his recent trip to Hollywood, where he met with the producers of the Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy game shows.

The producers promised to relay information about the Adams County area to production managers at Sony in charge of both motion pictures and television, he said.

Cauthen also spoke with almost 100 location managers about filming in Mississippi, he said.

“It was a good trip, and hopefully something will come up out of it,” he said.

In other business, the board voted to authorize the county administrator to utilize a work-experience program through the Mississippi Department of Employment for 18-21 year-olds wherever it is needed.

The Department of Employment will pay the salaries of individuals hired through the program, County Administrator Cathy Walker said.

The board voted to transfer $451.27 from the general fund to pay an outstanding cell phone bill.

The phones were initially paid for by a federal grant, but the county was obligated to pay a penalty for switching cellular providers, Walker said.

“The grant is only authorized to pay so much for the payment of cell phones,” Walker said.

The phones were used by county workers, and have since been deactivated, making this a one time debt, she said.

“We can leave it with a deficit cash balance, but we’ll be written up by the audit report,” she said.
