Shelby County Commission meeting on June 22
The Shelby County Commission will vote on the budget for the upcoming fiscal year at its Sept. 28 meeting.
The commission previously heard budget requests at its Aug. 25 meeting and discussed the FY 2016 budget at its Sept. 15 meeting.
During the Sept. 15 meeting, County Manager Alex Dudchock said the Sheriff’s Office will be over budget by around $316,000 by the end of the fiscal year. The Sheriff was not in office during the whole fiscal year, and Dudchock said he is taking steps – such as not filling vacancies – in order to combat the budget shortfall. County Engineer Randy Cole requested a total of $9.3 million in funding at that meeting.
Fiscal year 2016 starts on Oct. 1, 2015.
Other agenda items include:
- Approval of the holiday calendar for fiscal year 2016.
- A resolution for local matching funds for public transportation.
- A resolution for a storm sewer easement in Deerwood Lake.
- Appointments to the Shelby County Board of Equalization and Law Enforcement Personnel Board.
