Citywide budget hike eyed as salaries rise
City officials move to raise salaries across departments as the tentative budget calls for 1,605,809 in appropriations, a 16 percent increase from last year. Mayor Brown cites back taxes hoped to limit the tax rate rise to about 10 cents per 100, with major increases funded by street, park, and sewer projects and new staff in several divisions.
