County Budget Is A Snug Fit
Franklin County plans a tight 1976 budget of 2,985,326 dollars as assessed valuation rises to 55.5 million, with an 18 mill increase keeping total levy near 29.98 mills and salaries up five percent across the board. The plan adds solid waste disposal, maintains road and bridge funding, and relies on higher costs for supplies and utilities while warning that the picture remains tight due to inflation and funding limits. The public hearing is set for August 6 at 10 a.m. in the courthouse.
