Supervisors rescind bonus authorization and set reconvened budget meeting for June 29
Summary
After reviewing late-arriving state figures, the board voted to rescind an earlier bonus authorization pending final budget reconciliation and scheduled a reconvened meeting for Monday, June 29 at 6:00 p.m. to finalize the FY2026—27 budget.
During the June 24 meeting, a supervisor moved to rescind a previously approved one-time bonus for county employees and the board took a voice vote to withdraw that authorization while staff finish budget reconciliations.
Earlier in the meeting a separate motion had proposed funding a one-time bonus contingent on proceeds from the sale of county property; staff estimated that contingent bonus would cost roughly $54,000 including FICA if the sale produced the necessary funds. That motion had been seconded and received affirmative voice support, but the board later voted to rescind the bonus authorization as they reconciled state and school funding figures.
The board also adopted a motion to reconvene at 6:00 p.m. on Monday, June 29 to allow staff and the board to finalize numbers and determine whether any amendments to the adopted budget will be necessary. The chair reiterated statutory constraints: amendments that change the budget more than 1% of total expenditures require a published notice and a public hearing.
(Reporting note: the transcript records voice votes and "Aye" responses for motions but does not include a roll-call tally for the rescission; the transcript indicates the board agreed to reconvene June 29.)
