Property taxes 71%From the state 29%

Revenue is well above spending. That usually means Green Township collects property taxes for the school district and county and passes them on, so only its own spending is counted.

Not in the receipt.Interest on debt $9,000; payments to other governments $37,000. With these, the whole budget was $227,000.
About “Other”.33% of Green Township’s day-to-day spending ($59,000) is filed by the Census Bureau outside the named functions above, so the receipt can’t say what it buys.
