The budget contains an estimated tax levy of 32.338, which is to raise about $713,000.
City Administrator Matt Rehder says they were able maintain the property tax levy due to about a 6 ½ percent in the city’s assessed valuation. He said a mill will raise over $22,000.
Rehder says no major projects are planned for 2017.
The Council will consider adoption of the budget following a public hearing at their August 15th meeting.
