Committee asks for more timely financial postings; schedules Oct. 6 follow-up
Summary
Finance staff explained revenue postings and month-end journal entries that caused the Sept. 3 report to omit some August revenues; the committee scheduled a follow-up meeting for Oct. 6 to review updated financials and the administrator's budget proposal.
Kyle explained that revenues for solid waste require month-end journal entries and that the committee's cutoff for posting is the 10th of the month; because the Sept. 3 report was run before some August revenues were posted, FY26 net profit figures in the packet understate current results. Staff recommended presenting financials one month behind to allow time for accurate postings and suggested the committee could change meeting timing if members want later-month reporting.
"Typically, our cutoff for getting all the journal entries in is the 10th of every month, for the month prior," Kyle said, explaining why some data lagged. Supervisors asked for consistent historical reporting and more accessible archives; the committee agreed to meet Oct. 6 at 4:00 PM (with Supervisor Carlson acting as chair for that session) and staff said they would upload August financials once journal entries were posted so the committee could review updated figures before the county board presentation on Oct. 13.
