This Supplemental budget was prepared under the provisions of O.R.S.294 480 and approved by both
an advisory committee of local citizens and the Morrow County Budget Committee. It must be pointed
out that Revenue Sharing fund money may be used under several broad categories, but is not to be
used to increase salaries or for day to day business of county or local government. The largest item is
for road repair and construction that must be done before any serial levy funds are available. Federal
Revenue Snaring money used was budgeted under provisions of the Revenue Sharing Act of 1972 and
MUST BE OBLIGATED WITHIN 18 MONTHS. Any monies not used or expended before July 1, 1973
will revert back to the Revenue Sharing fund as a DIRECT CASH CARRY-OVER into that fund and
must then be re-budgeted. All Revenue Sharing funds MUST be expended within a 24-month period or
they revert to the Federal Government. It was the intent and purpose of the budgeting group to use
these funds for what they considered to be in the best interests of the county. It should be noted that
approximately $90,500. of Revenue Sharing funds must also be obligated in the 1973-74 budget which
will be completed prior to July 1, of 1973.
