Baraga County’s budget for the upcoming fiscal year will be slightly smaller than last year’s. At a special meeting last night, county commissioners unanimously approved a plan calling for just under $4 million in general fund expenditures. That’s $250,000 less than last year’s expenses. County revenues are also expected to fall by around $250,000. Once again, most fees charged for county services will stay the same, but board chair Bill Rolof says that may need to change.
Commissioners appointed James Ekdahl as a Democratic party representative on the Board of Canvassers. They also approved a request for an additional part-time employee for the probate court.
