County OKs $63,742.93 budget adjustment to capture EMA grant funds
Summary
Commissioners approved a net-zero fiscal year 2026 adjustment to add $63,742.93 in EMA revenue and capital expense so the county can account for newly awarded grant funds without changing town tax commitments.
County staff requested and the board approved a net-zero FY2026 budget adjustment to increase Emergency Management Agency (EMA) revenue and a capital expense line by $63,742.93, funds the county said were awarded as grant money not previously budgeted.
The finance presenter summarized the request and the rationale: the county will increase both revenue and expense by the same amount so there is "no change will happen to the tax commitments to the towns." The motion to make the adjustment passed by voice vote with two recorded "Aye" votes.
Staff said the additional capital expense related to equipment or projects discussed at a previous meeting and that the change will be captured in the county audit. Commissioners also briefly discussed logistics for involving the EMA director in follow-up briefings.
