Summary

Facilities director Joe presented courthouse and Family Service Center budgets, explaining a reported $503,448 loss for the Family Service Center driven mainly by a $365,000 depreciation line; he said operating cash of about $1,074,000 covers the shortfall and the fund is not part of the levy.

Joe, the county facilities director, presented the courthouse and Family Service Center (FSC) budgets and outlined staffing and revenue details. He said the courthouse budget increased 1.48% overall and described several revenue lines, including lease revenue and detox reimbursements. For the Family Service Center enterprise fund, Joe showed an accounted loss of $503,448 that is primarily driven by a $365,000 depreciation entry required for auditing purposes; he said the FSC maintains approximately $1,074,000 in operating cash that would cover an operating deficit.

Commissioners asked whether the reported loss affects the levy. Staff explained the Family Service Center operates as an enterprise fund separate from the levy and that the loss is largely a non-cash depreciation expense. Joe noted ongoing lighting retrofit phases and a plan to monitor utility savings next year.
