The approved budget funds the libraries and WYO at their requested levels and shifts some money into the Grantee Improvement Fund. After public comments raised concerns about transparency and cuts to fire department accounts, the board restored the $7,000 fuel-card line. A special meeting is still required for contingency-fund requests above the $20,000-$25,000 threshold.
