City Of Sulphur Budget Woes Continue

On the heels of the declining sales tax collections in the general fund, Sulphur council members received more possible budget woes at last week’s special Sulphur Municipal Authority (SMA) meeting held on Thursday.

With less than two months into the current fiscal year’s budget, the meeting was called for members to approve a $553,750.00 budget amendment for the water, sewer and plant restricted fund.

The amendment was necessary to cover the costs of the West 9th Street project, between Broadway and Muskogee, as well as the drainage box issue on West Muskogee Street between West 15th and 16th Streets.
