Emergency Management adds SHSP grant tracking line items, proposes 8% raises
Summary
Emergency Management proposed mostly the same budget as the current year but added separate line items to track each SHSP grant and requested an 8% wage increase for staff for FY 2026-27.
Kirsten Hartley told commissioners she kept the Emergency Management budget largely unchanged but added a new line item for each SHSP (State Homeland Security Program) grant so those funds can be tracked individually. She also proposed an 8% wage increase for Emergency Management staff in the coming fiscal year.
Hartley's presentation emphasized tracking grant money more precisely; the transcript does not list dollar totals for the SHSP grants or specific staffing counts. The board received the request as part of the broader budget review with no formal action recorded at this meeting.
