County Could Face Furloughs in January

A financial reporting error by the State of South Carolina, one which effects all 46 counties, means Anderson County will have to cut $255,000 from an already tight budget. Interim County Administrator Rusty Burns said that while there is still hope, Anderson County will have to "rachet down" to make it in the months ahead.

"We think we will be ok until January," Burns said. "But we may have to furlough in January, we won't know for sure until Jan. 15."
