The Starke County Council members discussed an additional appropriation resolution Monday night.

As explained by the Starke County Auditor, about $100,000 was budgeted for the Cumulative Capital Development Fund this year. The tax rate increased and about $200,000 is expected to come in, which was not expected. The additional appropriation will allow that money to be used in the Cumulative Capital Development Fund so the commissioners can fund equipment purchases or other capital assets as needed.

The new ambulance will be paid for out of that fund this year even though it won’t be delivered until February of 2019. The ambulance purchase will be about $127,000

The council members unanimously approved the resolution as presented.
