Dear Board of County Commissioners: Dist #3 Dist # 3 Dist # 3
After the 2020 budget adoption, I discovered the following omitted amounts and corrections:
• The Assessor (#001.107) requested to add $12,000 to Other Compensation for anticipated
amounts to be paid for employees retiring in 2020.
• Fairgrounds (#116.159) requested one capital item that was approved, but to be paid from
Tourism (#114 — Campground Maps - $5,000). After discussion, the cost of this item should be
paid for from the Fairgrounds and the money to cover the expense transferred from Tourism.
The Fairgrounds budget will need to be increased by $5,000.
• DCL (#125.167) requested an increase to their mileage budget by $2,500 and wages by $138,000
due to increased revenue from the Legislature.
• R.E.E.T. 1 (#126.168), the Treasurer estimated revenues of $913,000 for this fund. However,
approved capital expenditures from this fund totaled $1,566,800.40, resulting in a budget
shortfall of $653,800.40. This budget shortfall will reduce the beginning fund balance in
R.E.E.T. 1, currently at $3,825,748.72.
• Equipment Rental (ER&R, #510.189) requested an increase in Machinery & Equipment in the
amount of $613,090 for equipment purchases.
Due to these oversights, I am requesting an amendment to the 2020 budget in the amount of $1,424,390.
The final 2020 budgeted amounts as a result of these changes are:
Assessor (001.107) - $1,767,588
DCL (#125.167) - $2,836,642
Equipment Rental (#510.189) - $6,853,090
Other Funds - $97,543,526
Sincerely,
