The county's new budget for 2007-08 is down from last year, but Judge-Executive Ronald Wright said that is nothing to be alarmed about.
The county's projected $6.6 million budget is less than the current budget of $8.4 million, but the discrepancy of about $1.8 million is state grants.
"Last year's budget had state grants for the college, the park, and the ag center," Wright explained.
