BACKGROUND INFORMATION

 

Background: 

Parks - Within the Fiscal Year 2025 Budget $6,200.00 was allocated to Capital Outlay Construction Equipment (14457200.55600) for the purchase of one (1) Stump Grinder as a Decision Item. When the final quotes were received, the cost of the grinder came in at $4,469.00, no longer making it a capital item, but an operational expense. With that, the Parks Director respectfully requests the reallocation of $4,500.00 from Capital Outlay Construction Equipment (14457200.55600) to Small Tools Equipment (14457200.52140).

 

Library Services - The General Services Manager respectfully requests the reallocation of $16,400.00 from Contract Services (10057100.51500) to Capital Outlay Motor Vehicles (10057100.55500) in order to cover the cost associated with the transfer of two (2) vehicles from the Highway Department to Library Services.

 

Highway - It is being requested to retitle the part-time Bridge Inspector position (#88) to a part-time Engineering Technician II and reclass from the Hwy Construction Engineering Department (53120) to the Hwy Maintenance Engineering Department (53130). To facilitate this request, the Assistant County Engineer respectfully asks that $33,447.00 for the related salary be reallocated from Construction Eng Salaries Wages (53120.51130) to the Maintenance Eng Salaries Wages (53130.51130).

 

Reappraisal - CIS provides billable support for Reappraisal that is payable through the Reappraisal Fund’s Transfer to Fund 100 account. Charges for FY 2024 are $7,594.79 and the estimation for FY 2025 is $10,000.00. With this, the Revenue Commissioner respectfully requests that $17,595.00 be reallocated from Miscellaneous Expenditures (12051810.54990) to Transfer to Fund 100 (12051810.62100) for the payment of the FY 2024 invoice and anticipation of the FY 2025 billing.
