Summary

Staff recommended transferring up to $200,000 from capital reserve for a clerk-of-court system modernization (scope-dependent) and about $678,000 to complete a long-overdue parks dock replacement; the county reported roughly $11.2M in capital reserves before the transfers.

Staff asked the board to consider two one-time transfers from capital reserve: an estimated $200,000 for the clerk-of-circuit-court system modernization project (final cost will depend on scope) and approximately $678,000 to complete a parks-and-recreation dock replacement. Staff said the county's capital reserve balance is about $11.2 million, which would leave roughly $10.3 million after the recommended transfers.

Board members asked whether the county maintains a recurring budget contribution to capital reserve; staff said the locality generally replenishes the reserve from year-end carryover and does not include a recurring allocation in the adopted budget process. Staff noted policy could be revised if the board wanted a mandatory replenishment mechanism.
