The top line rose modestly, but its funding mix changed
Aging and Adult Services’ total appropriations rise from $31,558,944 in fiscal 2024–25 actual results to $33,272,136 in the adopted 2025–26 plan. The increase is $1,713,192, or 5.4%.
Intergovernmental revenue falls from $25,795,485 to $24,147,795, a $1,647,690 decline. Other financing sources rise from $3,655,245 to $5,763,146—$2,107,901, or 57.7%—and offset that loss.
| Measure | FY 2024–25 actual | FY 2025–26 adopted | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Intergovernmental revenue | $25.80M | $24.15M | −$1.65M |
| Other financing sources | $3.66M | $5.76M | +$2.11M |
| Salaries and benefits | $20.17M | $22.13M | +$1.96M |
| Services and supplies | $9.16M | $8.54M | −$0.62M |
| Total appropriations | $31.56M | $33.27M | +$1.71M |
Payroll rises while purchased services decline
Salaries and benefits increase $1,962,265, or 9.7%. Services and supplies fall $617,368, or 6.7%, while other charges rise $401,225, or 18.3%. The capital-assets row falls from $32,747 to zero.
Those shifts mean the budget grows despite lower planned services-and-supplies spending. Schedule 9 does not identify the source of the additional financing or which specific outside grants decline.
The records reveal a dependency change, not a service verdict
The original contribution is the cross-column financing comparison: the adopted plan relies less on intergovernmental revenue and more on financing sources while adding payroll. That makes the funding substitution more consequential than the 5.4% top-line increase alone suggests.
The table does not report protective-services cases, in-home support workload, meals, waitlists, response time or client outcomes. It cannot establish that service increased or decreased.
Method and limitations
The newsroom transcribed Schedule 9 and computed changes from unrounded figures. The prior actual column includes a $793,489 revenue surplus while the adopted plan balances to zero, so individual funding rows—not only net cost—drive the comparison.
Other financing sources can be transfers rather than new external money. The summary schedule does not name their origin, and later transaction-level and actual-result records are needed to trace them.
