County government will spend
less in general fund money next fiscal year.
County magistrates approved
their 2020-2021 budget last night, which shows the county spending Sixteen Thousand
Dollars less in general fund money than the current year.
However, the overall budget
will reflect an increase due to grant money from the federal and state
governments of about One Point Three Million dollars for the construction of new
hangars and remodeling of the terminal at the Russell County Airport.
County leaders noted that the
airport money is only pass thru money from the federal and state governments to
the county.
