Effective July 1', 1999 the <br />contributions will be reduced and she asked that each constitutional officer be requested to <br />contribute the excess contributions to cash carryover. <br />Budget Director Joe Baird commented that, if the state's figures are correct, they <br />estimate a surplus of about $2,600,000. This would lower the County's rate of contributions <br />about 1/4th . If all the constitutional officers are included, the total for the County could be <br />$600,000 or $700,000 which could be set aside to offset taxes for the next year.
