Journaled 8,330.85 of past Public Health pay onto the fund

Twice the County charged the opioid settlement account for pay the Public Health appropriation had already carried. On 06/06/2024 it posted eleven journal lines of 162.84, one for each pay of a Research Assistant from 01/18/2024 to 06/06/2024, 1,791.24 in all. The County's 2024 payroll report charges exactly 162.84 of his pay to the Public Health appropriation on each of those eleven pay dates, and the Public Health salary account's audit trail credits the same eleven lines back the same day. On 01/02/2025 it posted 6,539.61 for a Community Service Aide's pays of 07/14/2024 to 11/07/2024. The payroll report charges all of her pay on the nine pays from 07/18/2024 to 11/07/2024, 13,914.07, to the Public Health appropriation, and 47 percent of that is 6,539.61. The Public Health salary account's audit trail credits 6,539.61 back the same day. Neither charge paid for work as it was done. Each moved a cost the Public Health budget had already paid onto settlement money, months later. The opioid salary account these journals charge carries no appropriation. Its balance on 08/22/2026 was 72,339.89 below zero.
