I strongly urge you to be at the Superior Courtroom in Pittsboro (the old building in the middle of the road – i.e. the center of Pittsboro) on Monday, May 19, 2008 at 6 PM – check
http://www.chathamnc.org/Index.aspx?page=45 for details.
At that time, the Chatham County Commissioners will present the new 83 million dollar county budget – (last year – FY July 1 2007- June 30 2008- the budget totaled 61 million dollars)
If your income increased by 36% this year (the percentage increase from 61 million to 83 million) you need to attend.
I looked online at the two budgets:
2007-8 approved budget: http://www.chathamnc.org/Index.aspx?page=819
2008-9 recommended budget: http://www.chathamnc.org/Index.aspx?page=950
The 2008-9 budget indeed shows $83 million total. But the 2007-8 budget shows $76 million total, not $61 million as claimed above.
Am I looking at this wrong?
