Council Warned to Expect Less Revenue
The city faces the prospect of a leaner budget for the upcoming fiscal year and will have to get by on about $61,000 less, City Manager Terry Matz wrote in his budget report to the City Council.
“The current and future general fund revenue picture is not a bright one,” Matz wrote, because of continuing declines in property, sales and utility taxes and development fees.
The council is set to vote on a 1996-97 fiscal plan tonight. The $9.54-million budget proposes spending less in several areas, including weed abatement, development permit assistance and the annual Stanton Pride program.
The council meets at 6:30 p.m. in City Hall. Information: (714) 379-9222.
