Budget Woe Reveals City Budget Increases And Hearings
City officials release final operating budget figures for the fiscal year ending May 31, with a total of 2 972 000, up 52 000 from last October's temporary budget. The election fund stands at 18 000, with past elections averaging about 4 000 in expenses. Mayor Quin gains 574 over the temporary allotment, and Police and Fire Commissioner Emil Wright receives an additional 8 000 funded by changes in the contingency and health allocations. The budget includes 28 000 extra for the municipal auditors fund, but sufficient repair funds remain elusive. The mayor's expanded allotment covers health department work, Wright's emergency repairs, and a renewed push for street lighting. The report notes staffing constraints and legal vacation provisions for police and fire personnel amid long-standing funding gaps.
