Destin Fire District Faces Lean Year Budget Shortfall
The Destin Fire District expects 1984 tax revenues of 254000, may borrow up to 25000 to cover last quarter payrolls, and shows only 88 percent of last year’s revenue collected by August 1. Budget officials warn no carryover cushion and urge earlier planning for 1985 millage. State purchase of Henderson Beach cuts local tax receipts, with 14866.71 in taxes lost.
