County to trim $3 million
By Perry Schaible

Warren County officials want to shave $3 million from their 2005 budget.
Administrator Robert Price said the county already has $50 million worth of funding requests for 2005, but the goal is to reduce that to $47 million.
"If we didn't practice fiscal restraint, eventually we'd come to a zero on carryover and then we'd be in big trouble," Price said Thursday.
The commissioners discussed the issue briefly Thursday just before three members of Maineville's Village Council returned $4,500 given to them by the commissioners in 2002 to help pay for police services they received from Hamilton Township.
The commissioners returned the money and asked it be used toward Maineville's renewed efforts to develop a police department.
