bright picture when. he spoke to
Huron County Council last
Thursday.
Although' the county road
budget remains about the same
as -last' year with the county
raising $738,000 (about 10
mills) the amount of work to be
done has been drastically cut,
"This progra=m falls con-
siderably short of the amount
of wprk we had hoped to do,".
said Britnell. "We have been
forced to delete several projects
from this year's budget in order
to • avoid raising our
requirement of county funds,"
"In" fact your county roads
department has not asked for
or 'received;, an increase in the
county share of its budget for
four years - and this in the face
of ,the -continued rise in costs of
labor and . materials," said
Britnell. "As a result of this
tight budgeting we have not
