Fayette County continued its discussion of FY2017 budget plans at a public workshop Thursday.
Chief Finance Officer Mary Parrott walked the Board of Commissioners through a presentation outlining the current state of 2016 funds and projections for the coming year. The 40-page overview, now posted online at www.fayettecountyga.gov, notes that the FY2017 budget has no property tax increase, only minor staffing changes and no cost-of-living raises, although the county plans to absorb a 6.1 percent increase in employee healthcare premiums.
It also includes nearly $4 million of capital improvement programs, some of which will be paid for over five years.
