2026-07-18 — The money trail was hand-transcribed in July 2026 from OCR of the filed documents. Page-level references are being pinned against the stored PDFs (Docket #7).

Note on this line

The ordinance states projected revenue per fund — the 17 major funds below total ~$29.2M, and ~20 smaller funds bring the projection to roughly $29.9M (itemization pending, Docket #7). What the ordinance does not state is where each fund's revenue originates — that is the millage sheet, sales tax inventory, and treasurer's reports (Dockets #3 and #8).

how this line is traced

Reconstructed — and the trail stops here. To see who this money actually reached, someone has to pull records, minutes, or a check register (that's Docket #7). It often stays dark.

There's another way. If the county paid this line from a transparent, line-attributed account, it would publish its own itemized transactions — payee, amount, date — the moment each payment cleared. No request required; the dead end becomes a list. That's the idea behind receipts by rails, filed as a solution to the transparency question — read it and weigh in.
