POMEROY The Meigs County Commissioners approved the 2021 budget for the County General fund line items during last week’s regular meeting, setting the budget at $6,423,364.66.
The 2021 budget is nearly $400,000 more than the 2020 original budget.
While COVID-19 has made an impact on everyone from local individuals and businesses to local government, Commissioners Tim Ihle and Jimmy Will explained that Meigs County is set to see one of its highest single years for sales tax revenue, which paired with a good real estate tax settlement in 2020 and COVID-19 related funding, has the county in a good financial position to close out 2020.
