- Sum checks: appropriations by function exact ($215,742,818); revenues by source exact ($153,879,022); funding identity exact ($153,879,022 + $3,297,299 + $58,566,497 = $215,742,818); resolution identity exact ($156,226,321 + $59,516,497 = $215,742,818).
- What is not claimed: the $58,566,497 by-fund figure is not presented as the resolution figure (the $950,000 sales-tax credit explains the difference); the by-fund detail columns are not tabulated (they fall $1,000 short of the printed total as extracted); Warren County, Ohio and Pennsylvania budgets were not used.
- Jurisdiction palette: No verified New York jurisdiction palette was on file, so this page uses the neutral Hometown Numbers dark-glass theme rather than a jurisdiction color.
