Commissioners increase weed-control chemical budget and revenue projections
Summary
Ward County commissioners voted to raise weed-control chemical expenses to $125,000 and to increase projected landowner reimbursements to $40,000 and state aid to $70,000 after reviewing preliminary 2027 amounts and prior-year actuals.
Commissioners and Weed Control staff discussed discrepancies between preliminary 2027 budget figures and prior-year actuals, focusing on chemical costs and anticipated reimbursements. After the discussion, Comm. Schuler moved and Comm. Rostad seconded a motion to raise the chemical expense line to $125,000 and to increase revenue projections for landowner reimbursements to $40,000 and state aid to $70,000.
The roll call shows unanimous support: Comm. Rostad, Comm. Merritt, Comm. Olson, Comm. Schuler and Chair Fjeldahl voted yes and the motion passed. The changes adjust both expense and revenue assumptions in the weed-control budget heading into FY2027.
