Draft budget shows similar levy need and modest net levy savings under proposed Three Rivers partnership
Summary
Presenters showed a draft 2027 operating budget near $2.3M, estimated county levy need of about $1.46M and projected net county levy savings of roughly $98,000 by using in-house services and grant funding—staff said details remain to be finalized.
County and Three Rivers staff presented draft 2027 budget highlights for the proposed partnership. The operating proposal presented by Three Rivers showed total operating expenses around $2.3 million and revenues from O&M and Parks & Trails Legacy funds; staff said the county levy needed to support the proposal would be approximately $1.46 million, comparable to recent years.
Presenters said the use of in-house Three Rivers labor for maintenance and trades (rather than contractors) and use of certain grant funds could yield net county levy savings of about $98,027. Commissioners asked follow-up questions about the value of equipment to be transferred (about 45 units) and whether the county should expect a credit or other accounting for those assets; staff said a final inventory and transfer list will be prepared and the equipment will thereafter be managed under Three Rivers' equipment fund.
