City Faces Budget Shortfall and Seeks Higher Revenue
City officials led by Mayor Phil Minner call for a revised license and permit system to bolster revenue. They warn income must rise to cover operating costs of about 425000 dollars for the last fiscal year and fund a new disposal plant and improved garbage service. A survey will study increases in residential fees of roughly 14 dollars yearly, while real estate taxes will be equalized rather than raised. A committee including Nels Hansen and George Mattell was formed to explore revenue options under state law.
