RECOMMENDATION(S):
Recommendation
That the Board of Supervisors:

Body
STRATEGIC PLAN:
This action supports the following areas of your Board’s Strategic Plan.
Area of Focus: Workforce & Operational Excellence
Strategic Plan Category: 3002 - Invest in county facilities
DISCUSSION:
Humboldt County Public Works elected to receive funds from the Secure Rural Schools Act state payment. Due to the fluctuations in the Federal Government, it was not anticipated that those funds would be received in FY 2025-26. However, Public Works did receive State Forest Revenue in FY 2025-26 in the amount of $936,000. The State Forest Revenue program provides critical funding for schools, roads and other municipal services.
The attached supplemental budget will increase Public Works Road Maintenance budget, 1200325, in FY 2025-27 by $936,000. There are sufficient funds available for this increase.
