Dekalb County budget approved

nearly $74 million Fiscal Year 2010 budget, which is a slight increase over the 2009 budget and doesn’t cut services or employees. It also has no tax increases, and property taxes are not expected to go up for the average homeowner.

The transfer of $1.64 million will clear out a fund that had been set up to save for a new jail.
The jail and courthouse expansions are now being paid for by selling bonds rather than saving a little at a time, the county board decided last month. However, the transferred amount will be restricted to building purposes within the general fund.
