of the public hearing and ap-

suggestions," Mrs. BeU said.
The meeting begins at 10 a.m.
“The proposed budget calls
for anticipated expenditures of
1250,000 more than anticipated
revenues, however, the money
will be supplemented by an-
ticipated balances at the end of
this year," she pointed out.
The proposed 1977 budget
shows anticipated revenue
$1,020,565.53 with expected
expenditures of $1,273,684.55.
The anticipated balance for the
end of this year is $307,262.01.
