Augusta County Releases Online Budget Survey

Posted: Updated:

Augusta County wants you to help decide where to spend taxpayer dollars - and you won't need to make a trip to the government center.

A new online budget survey asks people about their needs and priorities, from schools to fire and rescue to recycling and utilities.

It also warns of a shortfall in the coming year, and asks taxpayers how to close that gap.

Augusta County supervisors will review the results in two weeks. Click here to take part in the survey.
