County Finances Appear Strong Despite Road Fund Gaps
County finances show unusually strong cash reserves and high tax collections, with total anticipated income of 1,527,704.62 and expenditures around 1.6 million for the year. County Auditor Edgar G. Garvey notes reserves may cover most needs but about 72,000 must be spent this year unless tax receipts rise, aiding delinquencies to about 17 percent. The general fund balance could sustain seven more months at current spend rate, while fixed charges and bond payments remain payable when due.
