Budget cuts loom in Baytown 1965 1966 fiscal plan
Baytown City Council nears completion of the annual budget study with a total of 4,695,590 for fiscal 1965 1966, about half a million over the 1967 1968 budget. The major cut is the removal of a 10,000 annual city contribution to the Baytown Health League. The council argues residents should not be double taxed for medical costs.
