Commissioners adopt first quarterly budget amendment for FY 2025–26
Summary
Finance director Gabriel Solis presented the county’s first quarterly budget amendment for FY 2025–26, a $131,880 increase in appropriations to $85,815,005 that reallocated line items across funds (treasurer, district attorney, veterans, disaster relief, capital improvements) without changing reserve levels. The board closed the public hearing and approved the resolution.
Gabriel Solis, Jefferson County finance director, presented the first quarterly budget amendment for fiscal year 2025–26 and opened a public hearing before the commission.
Solis explained that the county's total portfolio balance showed a $6.4 million decrease for August, driven largely by a $4 million pass-through to Central Oregon Community College for its construction project and $2.4 million for ordinary operations and transfers. Reviewing the budget amendment packet (item 8.1), Solis described adjustments to multiple funds including treasurer, district attorney (victim services), ODVA veteran services, disaster relief grants and a special road loan in the capital improvements fund. He said the amendment increases total appropriations by $131,880 to $85,815,005 without changing unappropriated or reserve amounts.
After a brief public comment period with no speakers, a commissioner moved to adopt the resolution "in the matter of accepting revenue, changing related appropriations, line-item adjustments, and changing expenditure budget appropriations for county funds for fiscal year 2025–26." The motion carried by voice vote. Solis said the county will provide departments the revised monthly financials and continue quarterly amendments going forward.
