Speaking at the May 19 meeting of municipal council, Vodden said the municipality recorded a surplus of revenue over expenses of $72,093 for the year. The surplus came despite lower than budgeted revenue from taxation and user charges, but that was more than made up by $2,445,690 in transfer payments from senior governments, $360,000 more than the budget figure. General expenses were up by $10,000 from the 2008 budget. The municipality spent $186,000 less on capital project than had been included in the 2008 budget. Total reserves sat at $2.3 million at the end of 2008, an increase of about $59,000 from the previous year. 2008 good for Morris-Turnberry
