Bluffton's 2013 budget of $4.3 million received council's okay on Monday. The budget is required to be passed by law in July. It is an approximate figure used in determining actual village appropriations, which must be passed by Dec. 31.
According to Nancy Kindle, village fiscal officer, the estimated 2013 budget is very close to the 2012 budget.
She told council that she does not expect much change in revenue from 2012 to 2013, nor expense changes during the period.
