Income tax windfall cushions Frederick County budget
Frederick County will close fiscal year 1997 with about 4 million in cushion from a last minute income tax windfall. The June 30 disbursement is about 3 million above last year, pushing total income tax revenue to 55.5 million and likely exceeding the 59 million forecast. County officials expect the August disbursement to push the surplus above the budget, though unaudited funds face restrictions before allocation.
