Day-to-day spending by fiscal year
Per resident: 2022: $649 · 2023: $799. Per resident it went from $649 to $799 (up 23%), partly because the Census population behind it changed from 7,253 to 6,646.
Building projects, interest and enterprises (hospital, utilities) are left out, so a big construction year doesn’t read as growth.
