Jack Shubat, Transit Manager for B.A.R.T., also spoke to the board giving the board various statistics about the transit system. He stated that 75% of the ridership is from Red Cliff to Ashland; 45% of the riders are senior citizens or handicapped; 15% are students; and 40% are adult riders. He further stated that according to their tabulations, 8% of the riders ride the transit system for medical purposes; 40'0 are for employment purposes; 30'% are for personal reasons; and 22% are for educational purposes. Spears questioned if the rates were reasonable. Shubat answered that they did not want to charge too much, because he felt that would decrease ridership. Ken Todd, Ashland County Board Chairman, also spoke to the board in favor of B.A.R.T. Diana Strzok, Director of New Horizons North, spoke to the board explaining to them how dependant their organization is on B.A.R.T.

Seidel questioned what would -happen to B.A.R.T. if Bayfield�County did not continue to support it.

November 23, 1982 Peg Stuber, 4-H Agent, next addressed the committee. She told the board about how one secretary from her office.was put on the Coanty Board payroll so that she could be a floater secretary for the entire courthouse. Stuber saw this as a 50% reduction in the secretary's time giving Mrs. only a part time secretary in her office. Richard Fredericks, Sheriff, was next to speak to the board. Fredericks told the board that he is opposed to the Sheriff's Department budget. He stated that according to the state average, we need two officers for every 1,000 people, therefore, Bayfield County would need at least 24 officers. At the present time, Bayfield County has eight officers. The total number of law enforcement officers in Bayfield County including county and city officers only amounts to 15.

Strom County Courthouse Washburn, WI 54891 Dear Mr. Strom: The present legal rate we charge Bayfield County was approved in April of 1981. We had said the rate would be good fora year, giving us a chance to compare it in relation to our steadily increasing costs. A half year tardy, we are proposing a rate that would be effective for your 1983 calendar year. Well aware of the increasing pressure on the county board to hold down costs, we ask_`for a five percent increase in the legal rates. That is only a few months short of a 2z%o increase per year. Our percentage increase is broken down in the table below. Compared to the legal maximum rate granted under State law, the county's rate for three papers is discounted 53%. The county has the advantage of appearing in the Washburn TIMES, Bayfield County PRESS and Iron River PIONEER for not much more than it costs to be in one of them. We offer guaranteed circulation with all papers on a paid basis. Unlike publications sent unrequested to box holders, our papers are well-read. And when a subscriber is inadvertently missed, we are quick'to hear about it. November 23, 1982 We are proud to be such long-standing county institutions, one paper over 100 years old and the other two close to 90 years old. And we welcome suggestions. We would expect this proposal to be referred to the Executive Committee. consideration, we would be happy to appear in person if we,are notified.

BAYFIELD COUNTY PROPOSED BUDGET FOR THE YEAR 1983 TO THE HONORABLE MEMBERS OF THE BAYFIELD COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS: The Executive Committee of the Bayfield County Board of Supervisors submits this proposed county budget for the year 1983 together with a report of operations. VALUATION The Wisconsin Department of Revenue has recommended a total county valuation for all real and personal property of $449,932,900.00. The recommended value was approved by the county board on September 28, 1982, and all 1982 county and state taxes will be apportioned accordingly. The equalized valuation of the county shows an increase over the 1981 valuation of $24,501,650.00 or 5.75%. In 1981:Ithe increase was 7.56%. COUNTY TAX LEVY & LEVY LIMITS Section 70.62 of the Laws of 1975 created new levy limits on the county. The 1981 county tax levy was 1,056,194.78 and with the allowable adjustments the 1982 levy cannot be -,more than approximately $1,497,924.00. The levy as proposed by the Executive Committee is $1,177,455.82. No amounts have been included in any of the department budgets for salary increases for 1983. There is, however, an amount of $75,000.00 included in the contingent fund which may take care of salary increases and other contingencies. The committee has included in the 1983 budget in the revenue section an amount of $151,800.00 Federal Revenue Sharing monies. Due to more realistic budgeting in the revenue section for 1982, there is no surplus cash available to be applied to the budget in 1983. The county levy limit for 1983 has been increased due to the increases in state equalized valuations and increased population, as well as by the lack of surplus cash that is not available to decrease the 1982 levy. The proposed county tax levy this year is $121,261.04 over the 1981 levy and is $320,468.18 below the approximate allowable tax levy. This year after completion of the tentative budget by the Executive Committee using budget figures as approved by various county board committees and department heads as well as other estimated expenditures, the grand total expenditures amounted to $3,961,929..31 with revenues of $2,369,147.56. With no surplus cash to apply, this would have left a tax levy of $1,592,781.75. The levy would have been $94,857.75 over the allowable approximate levy limit: The committee could not recommend a budget with a tax levy over the tax levy limit and even by adjusting the budget to bring it down to the levy limit, would have represented a county tax levy increase of 41.8% over the 1981 levy. The committee agreed that it was --necessary to make many drastic cuts to bring the county tax levy down to a more acceptable figure. Many cuts were made in the budget as first compiled. REVENUE SHARING FUNDS The local tax effort (county levy) is an important factor used by the Federal and State agencies in calculating the amount of Revenue Sharing Funds and State Shared taxes. Because the county board has been very conservative in the early 70's, we are now suffering from decreased revenues from those two sources. Unfortunately, there is a time lag of several years in the cal- culation of the aids, and consequently, any increase in the tax levy -this -,,year will not have an immediate effect on revenues. PAYMENTS IN -LIEU -OF -TAXES Bayfield County has received in 1982 $86,176 in -lieu -of -taxes on Federal Forest Lands. The amount is less than the $115,781.00 received in 1981. The payments are based on 75� per acre on Federal Forest Lands less the amount received as payment for timber harvest on said lands. Pursuant to County Board action 75% of the money is being distributed to the towns in which the Federal Forest Lands are located. BAYFIELD COUNTY JAIL Construction is completed on the new Bayfield County Jailand it has been occupied since April. NORTHERN LIGHTS MANOR REST HOME The new county rest home has now been in use for approximately two and one half years. There are now 68 patients in the new rest .home. There was at one time during the year a total of 80 patients in the rest home. HIGHWAYS The amount of $206,607.78 in the Highway outlay only represents the amount included in the county tax levy; other highway expenditures are not reflected in this budget. It does, however, include $61,304.00 county aid for bridge construction. 4111ON The 1981 Audit Report by John Maitland, C.P.A. has been again completed .-on schedule; copies are available for inspection at the offee of the county clerk or from members of the county board. Mr. Maitland has made several recommendations on various accounting items to the committee. Many of his recommendations have already been discussed and the committee will very likely act favorably on the other recommendations he has made. The assistance of Mr. Maitland and his staff continues to be a great asset to Bayfield County as his services are available throughout the year to all the various county departments. The Executive Committee recommends approval of the following budget for 1983.
