Hearing Reconvened: President James Widman reconvened the Budget Hearing. Council members present were Earl Gaerte, Christopher Sailors, David Helt, James Widman, Kathy Siders, and Gary Sriver; also, Denise J. Chandler, County Auditor and Penny Shireman, 1st Deputy. Judy DeVries was absent. Jim Widman noted that the Council is to reduce the proposed budget another $2 million from a $6 million budget, according to the DLGF. He emailed DLGF asking for a discussion as to the reasoning for that. The Council decided not to do anything with the budget until they were able to sit down and talk to someone from the DLGF. More discussion continued as to possible ways to reduce the budget. Jim Widman suggested sending budgets back to department heads and if their budget made up 30% of County General then they were to reduce their budget by 30%. Also, a LOIT (Local Option Income Tax) Public Safety was talked about if adopted the Council would be able to cut around $500,000.00 out of the budget. Denise explained how the PTRC (Property Tax Replacement Credit) is being taken back from the State, and therefore the County wonТt get that money to invest and earn interest on as they have in the past. That interest money was always used to help operate the County. Earl Gaerte commented that the County could borrow funds out of other funds to fund the budgets submitted for 2009, but then what will happen in 2010? Dave Helt requested Council get more information on the amount of money in Rainy Day or any other accounts they could use to fund the County General fund with. FedcoТs Executive Direction Shane Blair and Commissioner Roger Rose asked for the Council to provide the full yearТs funding to FEDCO, rather than providing funds on a quarterly basis. Widman noted that this was to prompt changes. Earl Gaerte, CouncilТs representative on the FEDCO board, feels that full funding should be provided with quarterly reports provided to the Council. Advisory Plan Director Casi Cramer reported that she needs a new hard drive. She believes that she has enough funds to make the purchase. She wanted to be sure that the Council didnТt object to her purchasing a new hard drive. This concluded the business conducted. Dave Helt moved to recess the general budget meeting. Chris Sailors seconded this motion. Motion passed 6-0. Meeting recessed.
