Budget questions linger on spending and authority in Augusta
In 1953 discussions in Augusta raised concerns over spending money to promote the budget and the lack of clear authority. Nadeau urged professional studies in county departments to curb politically driven appointments and pay requests. Departmental requests total about $14% million annually with nearly $1 million to be raised by municipal taxation. Towns and cities would contribute just under half a million for 1973-74 county services.
