The ADG (subscription required) this morning reports that Pine Bluff, which fell below 50,000 in population according to the 2010 census, will lose $750,000 in state turnback funds. Pine Bluff's population dropped 11 percent in the past decade. The question has been what would happen to a MSMA if it fell below the magic 50,000 number. This is the answer. However, the city recently approved a sales tax increase, which will fill in the gap in lost state or federal funds.
