Hello everyone, I have another quick update from the Jefferson County Board of Commissioner’s office.
Commissioner Leonard Wortman has been scheduling our last board meeting of the month in different locations around the county to allow more people to attend. This meeting is usually held in the evening to accommodate the folks that work during the day. Check out the weekly agenda for a meeting in your neck of the woods and come join us for a good, informative meeting.
We will be meeting with department heads starting July 8 to go over their budget requests and start the process of adopting the budget for this next fiscal year. Our departments are very good about keeping their budget in line with last year or trying to be more efficient and lower their budget requests. We won’t actually have a target budget amount, however, until the State gives us the county’s updated taxable values.
