1. Has the NA City Budget been approved by the State Tax Board called DLGF (Department of Local Government Finance)?
2. What date did the City receive approval of the 2006 budget?
3. Do the City Council Members have a copy of this approved budget for 2006?
4. If it was approved, were there necessary cuts to be made?
If there were cuts, who made the decision on the cuts?
5. Are there sufficient funds in each department to support the 2006 budget?
6. Is there a current copy of the City Staff payroll showing the amounts being paid the Staff and showing the Departments of those Staff Members?
7. Did the General Fund of the City of New Albany have sufficient money or were outstanding loans carried over in the General Fund from 2005 to 2006?
We here at Freedom of Speech think the Administration needs to be more forthcoming with information. The City Council needs to have the information before it is published in the local newspapers.
Have a great weekend New Albany Citizens
