Summary
County administrator presented preliminary budget binders showing consolidation of certain levies and a $29,000 net reduction from last year; commissioners approved senior-citizen meal-levy distributions as requested and scheduled a public hearing and final budget action for October 7.
County administrator Bonnie presented the preliminary budget and handed out binders outlining departmental worksheets and an overview sheet showing a $29,000 reduction in total levied amount from last year. Bonnie said legislators consolidated several mill funds into a single pot for roads and reminded commissioners of the statutory 3% cap on levy increases and the public hearing schedule.
On a separate motion, the commission approved the senior citizens' requested distributions from the meal levy. Bonnie said the board will review departmental budgets at the next meeting (October 7) and hold a formal public hearing prior to the final budget adoption.
