South Ogden budget gets back into black

Gentry Reinhart Standard-Examiner

Last updated Tuesday, January 10, 2012 - 11:39pm

SOUTH OGDEN -- A year ago city officials were bracing for a $95,000 deficit, but thanks to cuts and frugal department heads, the latest report of the last fiscal year puts the city $6,500 in the black.

City Manager Matt Dixon explained that difficult cuts and forgone capital expenditures helped get the budget back in shape.

"We didn't even go into the negative," Dixon said. "We asked the department heads to do more with less, and they managed their budgets well."
