Bonner County discusses moving dues and tuition reimbursements out of education line
Summary
County commissioners reviewed the general fund education line and agreed to create a separate dues-and-memberships GL, stop using the education line for tuition reimbursements, and ask staff to pursue removing an optional NACo charge from the IAC invoice.
Bonner County commissioners met June 2 to review general-fund budget lines tied to education, dues and memberships and historical tuition reimbursements.
The board focused on separating recurring dues and memberships from the education line and on ending use of the general-education account for employee tuition reimbursement. County staff said the education line historically included tuition reimbursements—notably EMS paramedic school payments in prior years—that inflated historical totals to about $62,000 in some years. Staff also reported this year’s dues-and-fees activity has already used about $23,000 of the line.
