City council approves 35 million budget amid debate
The Common Council approved a 35,045,472 dollar budget by 7 to 1 after a quiet hearing at City Hall. The vote raised the city tax by 1.20 per thousand, with 0.70 for general city levy and 1.13 for Board of Education, bringing the total next year to 43.54 per thousand. Critics questioned funding method and urged fiscal-year changes and broader teacher benefits.
