The City of Perry continues to work through their budget for the upcoming fiscal year.

As of the first Council work session, general fund revenues look to increase by three percent, or nearly $110,000, to $3,451,000.  Total revenues are estimated to be $9.2 million.

The increase in the general fund is said to be caused by an increase in taxable valuation, more township fire protection fees and a $80,000 transfer from the sewer operations fund to the general fund.

Requested general fund expenditures total $3.4 million, or nearly $12,000 under the estimated revenues for fiscal year 2018.  Total budgeted expenditures are $8.7 million.
