President (S1) opened the session and flagged the budget challenge: adopting the proposed budget would leave the council $2.4 million over the desired threshold. The group agreed to focus on large 'low-hanging' items first before personnel cuts.

Speakers:

Hamilton County council held a budget work session to identify cuts and one-time transfers to reach a target reduction (roughly $2.4 million) and achieve a flat tax-rate goal. Councilors debated pulling cash from departmental balances, reducing nonprofit awards, using nonreverting funds for parks and ISS, and a slate of personnel requests; they scheduled follow-up personnel discussions and an executive session.
