Sweadner proposes 4M cut in 1996 county budget
County Budget Officer Mark Sweadner提出 a fiscal year 1996 operating budget reducing nearly 4 million from this year and slashing capital improvements by 73 percent. The plan targets a projected 3.9 million drop in available funds, based on 174.571 million in revenue and the aftermath of 9 million in unaudited surplus spending in 1995. The CIP would fall from 12.5 million to 3.3 million by 1998, prompting the commissioners to warn of impact on CIP projects.
