Commissioners amend minutes to correct fund balance wording; clarify $13 million is total fund balance, not increase
Summary
Commissioners agreed to amend the minutes after staff clarified the county ended the year with a $13 million fund balance (total), and that the unassigned portion is about $10.8 million.
Commissioners voted to amend the minutes after staff highlighted a wording error in earlier minutes that described a $13,000,000 "increase." Finance staff clarified that $13,000,000 is the county’s total fund balance at year end, not an increase.
During the meeting a staff member reported, "We ended the year with 13,000,000 in fund balance." Commissioners asked whether the minutes should be amended to correct the prior phrasing that implied an increase; a motion to amend the minutes was made, seconded and approved by voice vote.
Finance staff further noted that the county’s unassigned fund balance is about $10,800,000. Commissioners directed staff to amend the minutes to correct the prior language and reflect the accurate figures.
