Mr. Anderson reviewed expenses for the committee.
Mr. Anderson (page 18) questioned “why the purchase of the

the Circuit Judge has the money in his budget?” Mr. Ruben answered
“In the past, he was told the judge might need the money”.
Mr. Anderson (p.27) questioned “what is County Development?” Mrs.
Dugan answered “County Development is Will D ’Andrea’s department”.
Mrs. Dugan also informed the committee it’s over budget at this time
because we paid CED’s fund for the year.

reimbursed from each office budget”.
