budget and why the City is asking for a tax increase when
the budget is less; what happened to the money from the
old Library?; why are extra funds needed? Director of
Finance Egeberg stated that our General Fund went up 6%
so that is why we are asking for a tax increase. After
asking several more questions regarding the budget, it
was suggested that Mr. Burkross make an appointment to
meet with City Manager Niemeyer to discuss these matters.
Alderman Beauvais stated that the city has to provide
full services to the residents; we are a growing
community; we have to make an investment in this City.
