Doc Drop: Board to Vote on Social Services Budget

The Prince William Board of County Supervisors will vote Tuesday on a revised Social Services budget, which would increase expenditures by $782,337.

The county sets its budget before the state. Now that the Virginia Department of Social Services has set its funding levels, the county budget's budget for social services has to be adjusted. The revenue increase amounts to $875,141. Since the county proposes to set aside a one-time increase for social services, in addition to the $782,337, it will ultimately save $60,627 as a result of the changes.
