Placeholder Image
Food and transportation for the elderly hang in the balance as the Gainesville-Hall County Community Service Center faces more federal budget cuts. Service Center officials have sent a letter to city and county officials asking for guidance in making up an anticipated loss of $65,000 from a second round of sequestration. Sequestration, which are automatic federal budget cuts that began March 1, will total $1.2 trillion in the coming decade unless Congress acts.
