Expenditures are expected to total $8,286,721 with $1,917,195 for the general fund and $6,369,526 for the special revenue fund.
In all funds, the Jury is anticipating a surplus of $173,122 for the year. With a beginning balance for all funds of $4,431,159, the Jury is expected to end 2008 with a balance in the black of $4,604,272.
In other business, the Jury:
• Took under advisement bids for health unit renovations in Ferriday and chemical bids.
• Voted to purchase a dump truck for $66,800. The Jury had set aside $22,000 for the purchase and has received a grant of $32,000 for the truck.
• Approved occupational licenses for James Neely, Spokane Construction, 4269 Hwy. 568, Ferriday; and Charles Ed Roberts, Eddie's Marine & Tackle, 450 Hwy. 84, Vidalia.
