EATON On Monday, Feb. 1, Preble County Commissioners met with PC Public Health Commissioner Erik Balster and PC Auditor Lavon Wright to discuss the placement of a public health levy on the May election ballot.
According to Wright, Balster had emailed stating the health department would need $600,000 to have a “sustainable” budget.
“I want to again express my gratitude again to you for listening to our rationale, and our organizational process, and really what we are excited to do and some of the challenges we’ve had in doing those things,” Balster added during the meeting.
