Naugatuck budget forecast points to tax rise
A six mill increase appears likely for Naugatuck taxpayers under the 1997 98 budget proposal. Officials including Board of Finance Chair Robert Neth say cuts have reduced earlier 22 to 12 to six mills, but fire police and education contracts drive the rise. Mayor Rado vows to fight the increase and may seek a referendum. The joint boards meet tonight at Town Hall to continue work.
