Summary

Commissioners asked staff to recheck capital-improvement amounts (roof, HVAC) submitted by Barry Compton that have sat in Fund 202 since FY23, noting the long-held figures may be outdated and should be updated before inclusion in FY2025.

Commissioners reviewed capital-improvement entries on the draft and identified three sheriff-related items (roof, HVAC and roof repair) that were submitted by Barry Compton and have been sitting in Fund 202 since FY23. A commissioner asked whether the dollar amounts listed on page 132 are current or simply carryovers from earlier budgets.

Budget staff confirmed the projects have not been completed and that the numbers in the draft are older figures. "Those are old numbers," staff said, and commissioners asked that Barry re-run estimates so the court can determine accurate FY2025 requests before making funding decisions. The court noted Fund 202 had approximately $1.4M available for building repairs and emphasized the need to confirm whether the roof/HVAC amounts are still accurate before committing funds.

No appropriation changes were adopted at the meeting; staff will follow up with updated cost estimates.
