Cultural Grants saved in PB County Budget

With a record crowd attending the Palm Beach County meeting last evening to set its millage rate, now up from $3.78 to $4,34, many spoke out for saving funds towards cultural programs.

Originally the County Administrator had proposed cutting $320,000 for these programs. All that public pleading paid off because $262,000 was left in the budget. Sure hope that $58,000 wasn't earmarked for the PB County Cultural Council that wants to locate here in Lake Worth.
