Auditor reports $39.1 million in county fund balances; notes communications equipment expense
Summary
The county auditor reported $39,117,140 in unadjusted fund balances for July 2025, higher general-fund collections compared with last year, and cited nearly $500,000 in communications equipment for jail control-room upgrades as a driver of increased public-safety spending.
The county auditor told the court that July 2025 unadjusted fund balances totaled $39,117,140 and that general fund collections were $28,851,162 versus last year's comparable figure. The auditor noted expenditure growth of about $2.6 million year over year, which she attributed mainly to public-safety costs, including new Motorola communications equipment associated with jail control rooms "a little less than $500,000," the auditor said.
The auditor also provided fund-by-department revenue and expenditure summaries and a debt summary; the court discussed classifying a recent communications lease as an operating lease, which would remove the related million-dollar entry from the debt summary if the FY 2025–26 budget is approved.
