In the official 2019 Welfare Dept. budget, each line item (such as Welfare Salaries) has a budget code prefix such as 01.4441.10.110.

The following bar chart shows you at a glance where tax money is being spent. Two budgets are presented here: Welfare Administration, which is the overhead cost for personnel and materials, and Welfare Expenses, which is the cost of the services provided to the needy.

For explanations of the line items, see the 2019 Budget Narrative on the town web site.
