and reviewed the 2004 Budget Changes summary. He stated the total budget is $136,625,785
which reflects the budget changes made during the October work sessions. In response to
Commissioner Geile, Mr.Warden stated Tobacco funds were dramatically reduced,and if further
changes are made in July,then the budget can be modified accordingly at that time. Responding
to Commissioner Jerke, Mr. Warden stated $300,000 is a conservative amount for the Social
Services Fund and will likely be more than what is needed; however, the funds are there if
necessary. In response to Commissioner Vaad, Mr. Warden stated the Assessor eliminated the
Appraiser III position through a reorganization and the budget was reduced accordingly. He clarified
any negative amounts reflected on the summary sheet are funds which are being added to the
budget. No public testimony was offered concerning this matter.

and adopting the 2004 Budget in the amount of$136,625,785. The motion,which was seconded
