• The Board Chair will lead the discussion on the proposed 2021 County Budget. The Chair will systematically work through the budget proposal to see if board members desire to make comment or have questions about the proposed budget. The discussion will begin with the capital budget and then proceed through departmental requests, and outside agency requests. After the budget has been reviewed the Chair will entertain amendments to the proposed budget. Each amendment will require a motion and a second to be considered for inclusion in the final adopted budget. The packet contains the Finance and Budget Committee amendments and amendments received by individual supervisors. County Board Supervisors are not limited to these amendments and may make amendments from the floor.
