Township budget notes DUI checkpoint line is a $24,000 passthrough
Summary
Officials clarified the DUI checkpoint line in the draft budget is an in/out passthrough: $24,000 recorded as both revenue and expense because the township hosts and pays participating municipalities then is reimbursed.
Township staff explained that the DUI checkpoint line in the draft budget is a passthrough item: the township records roughly $24,000 as income and the same amount as an expense for checkpoint wages because it hosts and pays participating municipalities and later receives reimbursement.
"That is a it should be a $24,000 income, and then later in the budget, it's a $24,000 expense," Sharon Long said while walking the board through the line, adding the item nets to zero in the township’s overall budget. Supervisors agreed the line should remain in the preliminary budget as presented, noting the township holds the trailer and pays wages as the host municipality.
