Summary

Dominion County Council approved a $9,274 additional appropriation to raise an assistant’s salary in the health department. Funds come from local public health service funds and the change will be added to the county salary resolution.

The Dominion County Council voted to approve an additional appropriation of $9,274 to increase the salary of an assistant in the county health department.

The council’s clerk reported the request had been approved by the Vermillion County Board of Health and referenced the Indiana Department of Health; the clerk said the funds come from local public health service funds that remained unspent from prior budgets.

Council members moved and seconded the request and took a voice vote. The clerk announced the appropriation was approved and instructed that the increase be added to the county salary resolution.

No individual vote tally was recorded in the transcript beyond the voice vote. The council also voted to update the county salary resolution to reflect the new amount.

The record shows the appropriation was presented as a one-time transfer within existing local public health service funds; no additional countywide levy or new funding source was mentioned in the meeting.

The council did not discuss additional program changes or staffing counts tied to the salary increase during the item on the agenda.

Next steps: the approved amount will be added to the county’s salary resolution as the clerk directed during the meeting.
