Proposed Franklin County budget creeps upward
Franklin County approves a 1977 budget with a 32.13 mill levy, up 2.24 mills from 29.89. The increase funds ambulance service from revenue sharing, appraiser cost fund, weed control chemicals, and general operating costs while some levies fall due to higher assessed valuation. A public hearing is set for Aug. 9 to review the budget and a separate 60,000 landfill allocation from the 1976 budget. The total proposed budget reaches 3,198,476 with about 452,000 from revenue sharing.
