Commissioners set budget and compensation hearing windows, plan evening 'road‑show' meetings
Summary
Staff reported a preliminary budget by the 8th; commissioners agreed to aim for compensation hearings the week of June 15 and budget hearings the first full week of July, and discussed holding evening community 'road‑show' meetings to present budgets to residents.
Staff (S3) told the board a preliminary budget would be ready by the 8th and said, “I’ll need to get it advertised.” Commissioners discussed scheduling compensation hearings the week of June 15 and holding budget hearings the first full week of July (July 6–10) or the week of June 29 as an alternative. The board favored evening sessions for a traveling road show to reach farmers, ranchers and working residents who cannot attend morning meetings.
Committee member (S2) and Chair (S1) discussed logistics: start times around 5–6 p.m. were proposed, with a compromise at about 5:30 p.m. to improve attendance. Staff agreed to publish hearing dates and coordinate auditor and canvass schedules noted for mid‑June. The board asked staff to finalize dates and advertise the hearings so compensation matters and budget deliberations can proceed on the county calendar.
No formal votes were recorded on scheduling in the transcript; the item was settled by consensus with staff tasked to set dates and publish notices.
