Does anyone out there have any information about what is considered 
"normal" for general fund total balances - i.e. - should they be 
approximately some number of months expenses?  I am looking for a 
general guideline as to how much is recommended to be  held as  a 
general fund unencumbered balance.
Thanks for your help.
