We learned from this week's Horry County budget retreat that $9,796,855 "unassigned" funds fell out of the skies. What do we do with it?

This found money came from various places listed in the budget retreat report. Here's the full budget retreat presentation (page 7 describes the unassigned funds breakdown):
