The Morrison County Board of Commissioners approved the 2021 budget and levy Tuesday, during a virtual meeting.
The total budget amount for 2021 is $54.408 million, an 8.1% increase over the $50.330 million budget in 2020. The increase includes a $151,755 increase â 137.71% over 2020 â to the countyâs park fund and $3.303 million more for the road and bridge fund. It also features $882,950 less for the solid waste fund than what was provided for 2020.
âOur budget fluctuates quite a bit,â said Morrison County Deputy Auditor Steve Messerschmidt. âThis yearâs fluctuation is mostly in road and bridge. Thereâs a pretty heavy road construction year in 2021.â
Commissioner Mike Wilson clarified with Messerschmidt that, just because the budget went up, that amount doesnât all come from local taxpayers.
