Coordinator reports smaller-than-expected insurance increase, previews budget talks and events
Summary
County coordinator told commissioners preliminary budget numbers are imminent and that the county's health insurance increase came in near 5%, well below an earlier 25% budget estimate; he also flagged a Sept. 9 airport ribbon-cutting and a community health survey.
Brent (the county coordinator) updated the board on preliminary budget work and said he expected budget numbers to be available soon. He told commissioners that the county’s health insurance renewal produced a roughly 5% increase, less than the 25% increase staff had earlier budgeted.
"We got our insurance back. Our health insurance is only a 5% increase. We initially budgeted for 25," Brent said, adding staff will circulate preliminary numbers and that finance-committee budget talks will start next week. He also reminded the board of upcoming events including a Houston County Airport tee-hangar ribbon-cutting on Sept. 9 at 10:00 a.m. and asked that the county public-health survey on compassnow.org be promoted.
