Supervisors approve budget amendment and three inter‑fund transfer resolutions
Summary
The Page County Board unanimously approved Resolution 23 (appropriations amendment) and Resolutions 24 and 25 (inter‑fund transfers) after a public hearing on the budget amendment and explanations of revenue and expenditure adjustments.
The Page County Board of Supervisors held a public hearing on a proposed budget amendment and then unanimously approved Resolution 23 (appropriations for the amendment) together with Resolutions 24 and 25 (inter‑fund transfers).
County staff described revenue adjustments and transfers: the county added miscellaneous revenue (identified in the hearing as about $58,006.53) that officials said came from items such as grants and the sale of two pickups; juvenile court services expenditures were increased to reflect a mandated court‑ordered cost that staff said was roughly $40,000; and several transfers were described as routine, including annual transfers from rural basic into the secondary roads fund and from conservation to public health.
Board members asked for clarification about which accounts were affected and whether some transfers had been included in the prior year’s budget; staff replied that several transfers were already planned in the annual budget process and that some line items are estimates because final amounts are not known at the start of the year.
After discussion, a supervisor moved to approve Resolutions 23, 24 and 25; the board voted in favor and the motions carried.
Why it matters: The amendments reallocate existing funds, recognize additional revenue, and adjust appropriations to cover mandated and unanticipated expenses; several transfers described are recurring parts of the county’s fiscal practice.
