Regular Meeting Date: July 27, 2005
Agenda Item: SECOND READING AND SET FOR PUBLIC HEARING FOR A 2005 SUPPLEMENTAL
APPROPRIATION RESOLUTION FOR 2005 BUDGET FROM ADDITIONAL REVENUES COLLECTED IN
2004
Staff Responsibility: DEBE NELSON
Description of the Item:
This budget resolution totals $431,250 in net increases to county expenditure budgets. This
resolution included the projects approved at last week's worksession. $269,000 of these projects
are funded from the one-time savings that were the result of the revenues exceeding the 2004 budget
amounts, $136,240 for the stabilization of the Thomasville lime kilns, and various amounts to the
other funds as a result of the employee bonus awards. The general fund cost of the bonuses was
$41,400, so we used that surplus to fund the Emma Master plan, rather than having the attorney's
budget contribute to this project. There is a balance of $4,106 that was not allocated from the 2004
surplus revenues.
