It levied and collected $1million in taxes dedicated to the repayment of outstanding general obligation bonds. It billed sponsors of a charity bicycle ride $5,000 for providing police patrols during the ride. It recognized $60,000 of cash dividends on investments dedicated to the support of a county arts center. It recognized $70,000 of cash dividends on investments dedicated to scholarships for needy county residents. It incurred $6 million in construction costs to complete a new county jail. The new jail was funded entirely with the proceeds of long-term bonds. It transferred $400,000 of unrestricted funds to an appropriate fund to be invested and eventually used to repay the principal on the long-term jail bonds (entries in two funds required). It recognized depreciation of $100,000 on equipment in a vehicle repair center that services all county departments that have motor vehicles. It collected $30,000 in parking fees at the county-owned garage. It issued $8 million in bonds to improve the city-owned electric utility.
