Uncertainty of state revenues affects Stokes County budget
Manager implements tough cuts to avoid raising property taxes
DANBURY (By Lisa O'Donnell, Winston-Salem Journal) - Expected cuts in state revenues made preparing Stokes County's 2009-10 budget a difficult task for County Manager Bryan Steen.
Among the cost-saving measures in the proposed budget is a mandatory 12-day furlough for all of the county's full-time and permanent part-time employees. It would save the county about $393,000, according to Julia Edwards, the finance director for Stokes County.
About 350 employees would be affected.
