City Council approves 2012 budget
The city's budget is another step closer to being in the books. Council voted 11-2 in favour of accepting the document at Tuesday night's meeting. Councillor Aldo Ruberto voted against the budget saying we keep going to the tax payer when maybe its time to look at city staffing. Mayor Keith Hobbs says its a very lean budget that does go after the deplorable state of our roads, and because of that its a great document. The document comes with a tax increase of 2.67 percent and will be ratified March 5th.
