Lack of Revenue Halts Committee in Atlanta Budget
The 1815 Anance committee heard that total city operating costs for next year exceed projected revenue by about $13,000. Comptroller Goldsmith's 1915 estimates require $4,718,000 for city departments, but only $4,706,000 is available. Departments plan to seek large increases, with the school department needing $921,000 more for payroll and four new schools funded by the board.
