We don't tell them exactly what to spend. Parks typically gets the greatest amount of local option money and they spend it on whatever priorities they feel are most important.

In March we'll know (what amount will be given to the YMCA). If there are additional funds, we could give those to CVB.

I didn't see very much of it impact this budget. We're in a position where we are better off than a year ago, but still not in great shape. Until the Legislature changes how they do things with the rollback, we probably won't have extra tax dollars.

There are no additional places to grow.

The county won't see any change in the taxes they receive or anything until a business or industry decides to go up over there.

I don't want to tell a department head right from the beginning what he needs or doesn't need. I get a statement from the county saying this is what you're going to get for tax dollars. I have a separate meeting with each of the department heads to look at what we need to cut.
