GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES The following graph illustrates the components of General Fund spending for 2022 compared to budget: General Government Public Safety Highways and Streets Culture and Recreation Other General Fund Expenditures Budget and Actual �0o O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O O o Actual ■ Budget General Fund expenditures totaled $14,390,861 in 2022 and were $101,779 (or 0.7 percent) under the final budget. Spending was over budget for public safety by $313,466 and highways and streets by $63,191. General government, culture and recreation, and other expenditures were $197,202, $36,599, and $244,635 under budget, respectively. Open positions and conservative budgeting largely accounted for these variances. The largest variance in overspending for public safety was largely due to pension pass -through payments to the fire relief (offset by intergovernmental revenues) and additional overtime spending required in the current year.
