Auditors uncover errors, trim funds in county budget

The Anne Arundel County Council eliminated budget errors and trimmed excess funds in payrolls and pensions to find more money for schools and nonprofits.

“It?s fairly common to go through the budget and an auditor finds someone getting more funding than they have in the past,” said Council Chairman Ronald Dillon Jr., R-District 3. “Any budget compiled by humans has errors and judgment calls.”
