General Fund - Summary
The General Fund is the primary operating fund for Sansom Park. It is used to support basic public services
that are not tied to a specific funding source. These services often include police and fire protection, street
maintenance, parks and recreation, and general government operations. Revenue for the general fund typi-
cally comes from a combination of property taxes and sales taxes. Unlike special-purpose funds, which are
legally restricted to specific uses, the general fund is flexible. Sansom Park officials can allocate money from
the general fund based on community needs and changing priorities. Because it covers many of the services
residents interact with most frequently, the general fund is often the most closely watched portion of a local
government’s budget.
