The final numbers have been crunched for the 2023 fiscal year for the city of Dauphin.
The city is reporting a surplus of $433,356.25 to the general fund, brought on by several departments being under budget, as well as increased revenues from a number of areas.
That includes increases in both tax revenue and waste disposal site income, as well as provincial fines, insurance rebates, custom work, and provincial grants.
Departments that were under budget included Economic Development, Transportation, Protective Services, and Environmental Services.
That surplus will be transferred to the general fund reserves to be used in 2024-25.
The utility fund however showed a deficit of $94,633.67, which was brought on by inflationary impacts on items such as parts, repairs, chemicals, and fuels.
Money in the water and sewer reserve will be used to cover that deficit.
