City Budget Debates Here On Planning Revenue Rise
The Lorain County Budget Commission evaluates a proposed city plan to raise about 400000 more than 1960 revenue. They consider hiring 16 new city workers and spending around 100000 on equipment, with a garbage collection fee estimated to yield 232000 if adopted. An alternate payroll tax faces opposition, with May or John C. Jaworski not backing it without full legislative approval. The panel moves toward a funded plan via assessments, fees, and rates, while $2.0 million in general operating requests and a 524000 expansion surplus are noted.
