NATCHEZ — With no contest from the public and very little discussion on the budget, the Adams County Board of Supervisors adopted the 2009-2010 budget Tuesday morning.

While the meeting was the second in a series of two public hearings for county residents to discuss the budget with the supervisors, no members of public attended.

For financial year 2009-2010, the county will be operating with a budget of approximately $24.1 million, only a slight variation from the 2008-2009 budget of $24.2 million.

“It’s pretty much the same budget,” Adams County Administrator Cathy Walker said.

Walker said this year’s budget was devoid of any surprises or problems.

“As far as budgets go, it was pretty straightforward. Very cut and dry,” she said.

But county departments did see some significant increases.

County grant matches on various road projects, the special election to be Nov. 3, the hiring of four new Adams County sheriff’s deputies and even the increased cost to feed the county’s inmates added $1.2 million to the county’s expenses for the upcoming year.
