Commissioner’s presentation of the 2010 Belknap County Budget: Madam Chair turned the meeting over to the Commissioners for their presentation of the 2010 budget. Commission Chairman, Christopher Boothby went through a detailed power point presentation. Commissioners discussed their budgetary goals when preparing the 2010 budget. Commissioners reviewed that there would be no cost of living increases in the 2010 budget and that there is no increase budgeted for any elected officials. Commissioner Boothby then highlighted key budget points throughout every department. In conclusion, Commissioners reviewed potential projects planned for 2010 using ARRA (American Recovery and Reinvestment Act) funds. Commissioner Boothby presented one new item that was not included in the power point. This was the fact that the State of NH was planning to reduce our Nursing Home revenues by approximate 7% (or a net result based on the numbers of $139,000). Commissioners called upon the delegation members (as resprestatives) to prevent this additional tax burden being passed onto Belknap County by the State. Commissioners also informed the members that the New Hampshire Association of Counties is actively following this. Commissioner’s presentation concluded at 8:15 AM. Belknap County Commissioners 115
