+The following errata, supplied by Jerri Botkin, applies:
+Overall, the County budget is seeing a 7.04% increase from last year, with the overall general fund budget showing an increase of 7.14%. Although some departments are seeing significant increases on paper such as the registrar’s office which is showing an 84% increase in their overall budget but $50,000 of this increase is due to equipment requirements from the state and another 43,000 is money that was previously budgeted within the General and Financial administration lines. Each county department is showing 15-35% increases due to this change where the General and Financial Administration lines are showing a decrease of (24.26%) . This will allow departments to track spending better in the future and allow administration better oversight of spending.
+Enterprise FUND
+As discussed previously the Enterprise fund has been operating in a deficit in the last four out of 5 years the overall projected expenditures have increased by 33.7% some of these increases can be attributed to the increased need for part time staff but the majority of the increases have been incurred with hauling of solid waste, repairs and maintenance to equipment and capital outlay. As you all know we are in the process of updating all of the Equipment at each compactor site including the main site in Monterey.  The total proposed expenditures for the enterprise fund is $457,400, with this new equipment the Enterprise fund should stabilize for a significant amount of time with no need to increase expenditures in the near future.
+The EMS expenditures have increased from $587,000 to $826,889 these increases are directly related to staffing increases. This budget currently allots salaries for an Admin/EMS Chief, 4 full time paramedics , 4 full time EMTS and an average of 5 part time staff($30,000) could be more or less depending on how often they work. Between salaries and benefits alone the EMS Expenditures have increased to $735,484, Uniforms and boots are Budgeted at $4500 and the training allowance is $17,500 with $4,000 of that allocated to training supplies. General Building expenses such as power water, consumables etc. are budgeted at$19,500 the remaining $50,00 is allotted for fleet maintenance and EMS Equipment which Brings the total EMS Budget to $826,889.
