Town council members sound like they should all be in Congress and Hudson working for OMB. LOL!

Century needs to be dissolved. Not a resident and I’m even tired of hearing about them.

Century does it the easy way, they just spend aimlessly and at the end of the year, they budget for what they have spent. That way, they never run over budget. I wish that I could do that with my household budget. But then I am not spending tax payers money. Wow! What a great bunch of elected officials.

Why, oh why do the people in Century put up with the crooks who run that town? Guess they either condone it or just flat out don’t care!!!

Hmmm. Doesn’t altering the budget at the end of the year defeat the ENTIRE purpose of budgeting? I mean, I thought the reason for budgeting was to allocate and plan what you can/will spend, not what you HAVE spent. . . . Reckon this would work with my household “budget?” “Enquiring minds want to know.”

Huh? Why would you do this? If your budget is based on analysis of needs, and prior performance, the analysis of variance of actual vs budget is a useful tool to see where adjustments are needed, anomalies or extraordinary problems might exist, and plan the future years. Very strange.
