Oneida County Executive Anthony Picente addressed the Board of Legislators Ways and Means Committee this morning on the county's budget surplus.

Picente says he wanted to answer concerns posed by Minority Leader Frank Tallarino.

He also detailed specifically how quickly the budget numbers can change because government runs differently than any other business.

The county finished the 2012 fiscal year with an $8.4 million surplus.
