Meigs Appropriation Down From Last Year
POMEROY The Meigs County Commissioners approve a 1976 county budget totaling 1.548 million dollars, down from 1.751 million. Auditor Howard Frank notes departments must stay within budgets as general fund surplus is used, with no new school or SECEMS funding in the year and 143,146 from CETA. Real estate gains from the Southern Ohio Mining complex lift county tax valuation to about 90 million, and import tax revenue delays from the state are due in March.
