Treasurer and Auditor Report Fund Balances; Resident Raises Constitutional Concerns in Public Comment
Summary
Auditor and treasurer presented May and April financial reports showing a combined fund balance above $41 million; a member of the public used the treasurer agenda item to raise constitutional objections to state charging procedures and warned commissioners about possible legal consequences.
Auditor Miss Haynes delivered the May 2025 financial summary, reporting an unaudited fund balance of $42,136,705 and noting that increases in FY25 expenditures were primarily within public safety due to a Motorola communications upgrade. She said general fund collections stood at $27,521,085 compared with $26,372,457 in FY24 and that the county had spent $19,444,715 year to date.
During the treasurer's agenda item, Treasurer Miss Rush reviewed April 2025 totals (ending cash plus investments $41,266,075.71) and investment interest details. The court accepted public comment from Amanda Harden, who urged commissioners to consider what she described as constitutional violations in state charging procedures. Harden stated her view plainly during the public comment: "That's unconstitutional," and said she was providing public notice to the court about the legal issue. The court proceeded to approve the treasurer's report and related posting actions.
