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

An estimate

Sharon Township didn’t report all of its 2022 figures to the Census Bureau, so most of these numbers are the Bureau’s estimates.

Not in the receipt.With the enterprises, the whole budget was $11,000.
About “Other”.60% of Sharon Township’s day-to-day spending ($6,000) is filed by the Census Bureau outside the named functions above, so the receipt can’t say what it buys.
