In other business, the boad approved a 1984-85 budget proposal totaling $4,000. That’s up $200 from the current fiscal year.

The board will request an additional $300 to cover the cost of a court reporter to take minutes of meetings and, when necessary, provide transcipts. The meetings are taped and transcrips will only be made in event of legal action, chairman Lee Bird explained at a previous meeting.

Travel expenses were deleted from the budget because board members have not been claiming expenses when they make site inspections. However, they asked an increase in their per diem for attending meetings. Their pay would rise from $20 to $25 for each session.

The budget proposal goes to the Board of Supervisors for its consideration during budget review.
