East Feliciana Police Jury Adopts Budget

CLINTON, La. (AP) — The East Feliciana Parish Police Jury has adopted a $7.6 million budget for 2013.

The jury's financial adviser said Monday the budget conservatively estimates revenues and anticipates spending to remain nearly the same as this year.

Accountant Phil Graham, who prepared the budget proposal, tells The Advocate (http://bit.ly/R406FI) the budget anticipates revenues in all funds to total $7.16 million and all expenditures to total $7.6 million.

Graham says the general fund includes a transfer of $350,000 from the health unit fund, but the general fund will transfer the same amount to the road and bridge fund.
