Ultimately however, budget pressures over the summer led the legislature to pass an $89 million FY14 supplemental spending bill on October 31st, resulting in the smaller-than-expected surplus of $11.4 million into the CPA Trust Fund.  Last year the Trust Fund had received the full $25 million from the surplus.<\/p>\n<p>2) A decline in collections for the trust fund from recording fees at the state&#8217;s Registries of Deeds.<\/p>\n<p>This is the 12<sup>th<\/sup> year that Sudbury has received funds from the state Community Preservation Fund.
