The Shelby County Commission meets Wednesday to take another stab at approving a balanced budget.
The economic downturn makes that task more difficult.
We’re rolling into Fiscal Year 2021 with little room for error. The county will collect less than originally expected this year and has lowered its projections for the next.
Some are calling for us to make up the revenue shortfall by increasing property tax rates. Here are a few reasons why that can’t happen.
I have seen the COVID-19 viral formula explained this way:
infection = exposure + time
The closer you come to someone who is carrying the virus, and the more time you spend near them, the more likely your chances are of contracting it.
It’s a simple (and simplified) formula, but it explains many things.
