The State Auditor’s Office has released an audit report on the South Dallas County Landfill Agency.
According to the report, the agency had receipts totaling $1,186,788 for the fiscal year ending June 30th. That’s a 25.3 percent increase over fiscal year 2013. Among the revenues include $1 million in gate receipts and $15,900 in member assessments. The report states that the significant increase in receipts is primarily due to an increase in tonnage collected over the prior year.
Expenses for Fiscal year 2014 totaled $1,099,150 which is a 24.9 percent increase over the year before. This includes $538,000 for capital outlay, $174,000 for salaries and benefits and just under $60,000 for the solid waste contract. The report attributes the increase in disbursements to the purchase of equipment.
