Non-Profit Budget Review CommitteeTerry Bell - Chair(This committee is made up of the chairs of each of the standing committees. Its function is to review non-profit requests.)Scott RubleyMicheal BellBlaine WilcherGary PraterRon LeeTommy SavageChristy RossCarlene BrownSteve HeltonRandy EnglandAnnual Review Process for Non-Profit Funding RequestsThe annual review process for non-profit funding requests from the county is a crucial event that determines the allocation of funds to various organizations. This process involves a committee composed of chairpersons from each committees, including Terry Bell, Christy Ross, Randy England, Scott Rubley, Tommy Savage, Ron Lee, Michael Bell, Carl Bouldin, Carlene Brown, Gary Prater, and Blaine Wilcher.Every year, at the end of the fiscal year, non-profits have the opportunity to request funds by filling out a form and attending a meeting to discuss their needs. This year, the county awarded $459,666.65 for the new fiscal year. The county is mandated to support maintenance and effort only for the Magness Library, which received minimal funding due to issues such as a large homeless following impacting local use of the library.The rescue squad and fire departments also receive substantial funds from the county. Commissioner Prater recommended that the rescue squad receive less than the volunteer fire departments and humorously suggested they add sausage to their monthly ham breakfast fundraiser. The rescue squad had not picked up last year's award, which was also discussed.Meals on Wheels Director, Nancy Mayfield, was the only representative who attended the meeting and explained how the funds would be used to purchase containers for the meals. Other timely applications included The Black History Museum, Warren County Food Bank, Special Games, The McMinnville Warren County Chamber of Commerce, Warren County A & L Fair, Warren County Sr Center, CASA, Families in Crisis, Young Men United, and The American Red Cross. Late applicants included The Pregnancy Care Center, Main Street McMinnville, and Warren County Books from Birth.Commissioners discussed the amount requested, the organization's budget, cash on hand, and the impact on the community. Commissioner Rubley pointed out that the American Red Cross has its books out of order, with administrative costs higher than the recommended percentage for a non-profit, resulting in no county funds being awarded. Commissioner Ross emphasized the importance of timeliness and communication with board members to receive tax dollars. While everyone agrees that good work is being done, communication and transparency are essential. And no elected official should be attacked for doing their due diligence and asking the hard questions. For the full story, pick up next week's Local Voice or watch the live feed. Government processes are cool!

**Summary of the Health and Welfare Committee Meeting – May 8th**During the meeting on May 8th, the committee reviewed significant developments from April, where the health department administered 67 vaccines and facilitated 2,548 visits from 2,753 clients. A groundbreaking ceremony for a new health department location is scheduled for May 12 at 11:30 AM.The animal shelter provided an update on its April activities, reporting a census of 3 cats and 66 dogs. There was an intake of 17 animals (1 cat and 16 dogs) and a total of 4 successful adoptions (2 cats and 2 dogs). Unfortunately, there was also one cat death and one animal returned to its owner. The shelter received 225 phone calls and $165 in donations, alongside generous contributions of pet food and essentials.In terms of rescue operations, outreach efforts involved contacting 14 organizations, with 5 responding. Notably, A Paw and a Prayer Dog Rescue has agreed to assist with dogs weighing under 20 pounds and puppies. Currently, there are 8 puppies, approximately 2.5 weeks old, waiting to be weaned, with rehoming initiatives set to begin in a month. The committee approved a rehoming fee of $150 per dog for rescues and decided to waive adoption fees until July 10 to encourage adoptions.The committee discussed the construction of a new shelter, noting that project bids have exceeded budget expectations, with the lowest roof bid at $169,000 and additional costs for trusses, labor, and metal installation. They are considering alternative labor sources, including local companies and a Mennonite group from Sparta, Tennessee.Operationally, the shelter remains open five days a week, from 8 AM to 4 PM, supported by staff members Jeff, Megan, and Shelby, along with inmate assistance for cleaning. A new truck insert is being ordered, featuring air-conditioning and dedicated storage.Looking ahead, the committee highlighted an upcoming event on June 20, organized by Jackie at the Warren County Chamber of Commerce, where shelter animals may be showcased. Plans were also made to investigate options for securing trusses and a follow-up on the Raising Wolf event details.Lastly, discussions continued regarding staffing adjustments due to a recent resignation and improving volunteer engagement while addressing kennel cleanliness concerns.

On May 5th, the Budget and Finance Committee reviewed and approved the judicial commissioner's budget, implementing several changes aimed at enhancing operational efficiency within county operations. Highlights of the budget include an additional $100 in dues and memberships and new funding for the Emergency Vehicle Purchase (EVP) fund, which is dedicated to office software digitization and vehicle maintenance.A notable feature of the budget is a built-in staff raise of $2,500, intended to ensure fair compensation. The committee also proposed a $7,500 investment in new building permit software, which aims to improve user access and compliance, thereby streamlining the permitting process. Positive financial projections indicate bar marshal deeds revenue might exceed $54,000 this year, with future revenues from plan reviews estimated between $60,000 and $90,000.However, challenges were identified in the legal budget due to increased attorney fees, which now range from $150 to $275 per hour, with potential fees climbing to $300 for court appeals. Vehicle maintenance costs have risen by $1,000, necessitating ongoing discussions about vehicle replacement.Cost-saving strategies include the use of Stamps.com, anticipated to save approximately $1,000 annually, and new software for the Juvenile Court expected to reduce costs by about $6,500. Increased juror witness fees were noted due to a rise in trial activity.The health department budget includes $51,100 in local funding and provisions for state allocations, while the Emergency Management Agency faces rising operational costs, especially fuel and personnel. Grant applications are underway for $450,000 in site development and $125,000 for reconfiguring the Centertown Convenience Center.A significant investment in the ACA Ware Incident Command software, costing $8,500, was proposed to enhance emergency management capabilities. Overall, the budget discussions reflected a proactive focus on technology upgrades, legal services, and operational efficiencies, positioning the county to meet future needs effectively.
