Every dollar Williams County’s general fund took in during 2024, and what it paid for. The general fund pays for the county’s day-to-day work; Hillside (the county home), the sewer fund, roads (auto and gasoline tax), the Enrichment Center (developmental disabilities) and the county’s other dedicated funds run on their own funds and are not in this picture. Williams County reports on a cash basis: money received and paid out during the year. The audit lists $1,684,068 for “hospitalization” without defining it.Cada dólar que recibió el fondo general de el condado de Williams en 2024, y en qué se gastó.
