Option 2 – you live in the city of Oatmeal. You are married and your children are adults living in Applesauce. You grow up in Applesauce but moved to Oatmeal to care for your elderly parents. Your parents are getting a little slower so you must check on them daily. Your parent would like to move to a senior living campus, but the nearest facility is in Applesauce twenty minutes away.
Like many good citizens, you are helping your local community. You decided to run for county commissioner and win the position. As a County Commissioner, you are responsible for the allocation of funds for local projects. One project in question is for a new senior care facility, for the town of Oatmeal has an active, but aging population.
After crunching the number and you have come up with a figure of $7,500,000. The County budget this a surplus of $10,000,000 in the coffers for local projects. The community is behind the project and all systems go.
The only problem is the people in the city of Applesauce also have a request for a community project. The city of Applesauce needs a child care facility and the center has a projected budget of $8,500,000. They believe their project, a worthwhile goal, should be funding first. You have no way of knowing if next year the funds will be available.
