Summary

Staff added $15,000 for domestic violence services to the state levy workbook during preliminary budget work, which increased the county general preliminary levy calculation to 59.85 and raised the total amount levied on the worksheet accordingly.

During worksheet updates, staff (S1) added $15,000 for domestic violence services to the preliminary budget and recalculated the county general levy. "I added the 15,000 in. It brings the overall budget to 6,756,809.03," staff said, noting the county general preliminary levy moved to 59.85 on that worksheet iteration and the total amount levied increased on the page shown to commissioners.

Commissioners discussed where the $15,000 could be drawn from and stressed that any addition requires identifying offsetting reductions elsewhere if the board wants to limit levy growth. The staff presenter committed to providing updated worksheets that reflect this addition and other pending figures.

The addition was reflected in the worksheet used to support the preliminary motion; commissioners did not reverse the inclusion during the meeting.
