Dundy County adopts 2022–23 budget and tax levies, approves several fund transfers
Summary
From September through November 2022 the Dundy County Commissioners adopted the 2022–23 budget and tax levies, approved a 1% budget increase, and authorized transfers including a $100,000 move from the Inheritance Tax Fund to the Road Fund and other fund reallocations.
The Dundy County Board of Commissioners approved the county budget and property tax request for the 2022–23 fiscal year and authorized multiple fund transfers during hearings and regular meetings in September–November 2022.
At a Sept. 19 Budget Hearing Dan Miller, CPA, presented budget details and the board adopted Resolution 76-2022-09 (Resolution of Adoption and Appropriations) and separately approved Resolution 76-2022-10 to allow an additional 1% budget increase for 2022–23. The board later adopted the county's property tax request under Resolution 76-2022-11.
The board approved notable intra-county transfers. On Sept. 19 and again in later meetings commissioners moved $100,000 from the Inheritance Tax Fund to the Road Fund (recorded at multiple meetings and referenced as Resolution 76-2022-8/18 in the minutes). Other transfers included a $20,000 transfer from the Road Fund to the Ambulance Fund and financial support actions such as $1,635 for Prairie Plains CASA and $4,600 for the Dundy County Senior Center.
Why it matters: These resolutions set the county's revenue and spending limits for 2022–23 and allocate funds to key services including roads and emergency medical services. Transfers affect available balances for capital and operating needs in high-cost areas like road maintenance.
Votes and procedure: Adoption motions were recorded as unanimous where noted. The Board of Equalization convened to finalize tax levies and published notices and final levy figures are available at the Dundy County Clerk's Office.
Next steps: Budget and levy actions were effective for the 2022–23 fiscal year; commissioners scheduled follow-ups on road and bridge projects and vacancies affecting implementation of budgeted work.
