Schuppan ask how many years this has been approved and if we used it. Stacey said she is <br /> not sure but to her knowledge this has been approved in the past and there may have been only <br /> 2 years that this was not approved. This can be used when the valuations decrease that is why <br /> it is so important and if they just off set the budget with inheritance tax dollars they will continue <br /> to use those dollars in the future. It is just used in the next budget year and in future years. <br /> This year is done. <br /> Brad Fegley was present and Jane ask how many years he has helped with the county budget <br /> and he stated 20 years plus. Jane ask if he would advise to approve this and he stated he <br /> would. By not passing this you are restricting future expenditures. The goal is to have an <br /> unused budget authority of$1 million and they have reached that. It will hurt the county in the <br /> future and he would always advise them to approve this. It will affect future years. The levy is <br /> the factor that determines what taxes are paid based on the valuation of the property that is <br /> owned. This is another calculation that the state has imposed on the process and he always <br /> encourages the board to approve it. <br /> Quandt noted that the city may use this and has in the past. <br /> Stacey explained that the county can only address the entities that they oversee no one else. <br /> She stated the Airport, Ag Society and fire districts all approve the 1%. <br /> The vote on the motion to approve the addition 1% spending authority was taken.
