County Council sets target minimum fund balances

Tippecanoe County officials continue to develop a cash management plan.

Council members have set target minimum balances for several funds.

President Roland Winger says the amounts are flexible, and there will not be a penalty for falling below a certain amount.

The council agreed on a target minimum balance of $6 million for the general fund and $7 million for the rainy day fund.

Winger says the county is on target to have $11 million in the rainy day fund at the end of the year.

He says there has been discussion about using some of that money to address a backlog in road and bridge improvement projects as well as helping with the jail lease and maintenance of the parking garage.
