City and County Use Snow Funds Less Than Budget
With little snow this season Frederick city has 22795 dollars left from the 30050 snow removal allocation in the Highway Users Fund. City Treasurer Eichelberger says unneeded money may shift within the fund or to next year’s budget if no severe storms occur. County uses snow funds for road repairs and sinkholes, with potential reallocation at year end to cover unpaved road damage.
