Board approves amended FY26/27 budget, authorizes capital transfers and temporary airport loan
Summary
The board approved the recommended FY26/27 budget as amended, including capital transfers for roads and ERP funding from cannabis, a $220,599 probation capital asset, a $1.2M temporary airport loan from reserve 153, and a $270,000 one‑time allocation for ramp monitors.
At the conclusion of the June 17 hearing, Lake County supervisors voted to adopt the recommended FY 26/27 budget with amendments. Key adopted actions included:
- Probation capital asset: approve $220,599 for a capital purchase carryover. - Roads/Socrates Mine Road: transfer $1.5 million (geothermal budget unit) for combined landslide repairs PM 1.0/2.4. - ERP/Workday: authorize a transfer of approximately $1,294,485 from cannabis revenue to fund remaining Workday implementation costs. - Lamson Airport: approve a temporary loan of $1.2 million from general‑fund reserve 153 for project cash flow, to be repaid from FAA/state reimbursements where possible. - Ramp monitors (Watershed Protection District): one‑time $270,000 allocation from cannabis funds to cover roughly six months of monitor operations; supervisors requested a sustainability plan.
The board also moved $50,000 from a county program allocation (One Team One Dream) to cover a PG&E engineering request for watershed protection, pending project details. Several position adjustments (sheriff administration, jail, probation limited‑term analyst) were included; mental‑health position changes were deferred to final budget.
Clerk records show the amended budget motion carried with the board and staff were directed to return with follow‑up materials, including a software‑cost inventory and a repayment proposal for the outstanding behavioral‑health loan.
