The Carroll County Delegation approved a package of budgets, appropriations and capital requests during a multi‑hour session that included votes on the Mountain View nursing home budget, outside agency appropriations, corrections medical funding, registry bond payments and other departmental budgets.

Key votes and outcomes included approving the Mountain View nursing home operating budget and companion revenue and capital requests; adopting the subcommittee recommendation for outside‑agency appropriations at $530,500; increasing the corrections medical appropriation by $230,000; and several long‑term debt and departmental budget approvals. Several items carried unanimously or by large margins, and a handful of departmental capital requests were referred to the commissioners for follow up.

Why it matters: The approvals lock in operating funding and one‑time capital spending for the remainder of the fiscal cycle, set the county's funding level for outside nonprofit partners, and add contingency funds for the jail's medical costs at a time when inmate medical expenses have been rising.

What comes next: Some one‑time capital requests will be reviewed by the county commissioners (ARPA and capital funds), and the delegation expects follow‑up reports from departments asked to provide more detail (for example, corrections and IT). The delegation also formed an investigative committee under RSA 24:17, and named membership to that committee.
