                                                The 2011 preliminary budget will be present to the assembly.  $15,000.00 is in the individual line item for the Anderson Fire Dept. and $11,792.00 for the city’s per capita for a total of $26,792.00.  This is preliminary and could change.  Also Dave reported on the State capital budget. It currently doesn’t show any request for the city being funded.  I am checking into that as I expected something on there for the wild land fire truck replacement.
