(KLZA)-- The Pawnee County Commissioners discussed the 2017-18 Fiscal Year Budget with County Clerk Candi Nicholas during their Tuesday meeting.
Following the discussion, the Board approved a resolution to increase the lid levy for the new fiscal year budget by an additional 1 percent as allowed by state statute. The action will allow the budget to grow an additional 3.5 percent.
An Interlocal Cooperation Agreement for funding the Baliff position for the Clerk of the District Court was tabled until the August 29 Board meeting. County Attorney Jennifer Stehlik Ladman is to discuss an addendum to the agreement with Judge Smith.
Commissioners also approved an Interlocal Agreement to Provide for Cooperative Public Safety Services among Southeast Nebraska counties including Richardson, Johnson and Nemaha Counties.
A request for funding from the Southeast Nebraska Development District was partially approved. Pawnee County will pay dues of just over $6,200 for the next fiscal year, but denied the request to enter into a funding agreement for the housing program.
