The budget will run with a deficit of $1,157,366. The City is already over $5 million in debt. The council debated for three hours before approving the budget in a 3-2 vote. Since the Council did not pass the budget in their last meeting, the County set their tax rate, which cost them some tax revenue. The City is also planning for several large projects, including needed repairs on the railroad and water tower.
