(KAIR)--The Atchison City Commission has granted final approval for the 2020 budget.
That followed a public hearing that drew no public comments during Monday’s meeting of the Commission.
Atchison City Manager Becky Berger provided a brief review of the budget prior to final passage. “At the last Commission meeting, I presented the recommended budget, asked for any amendments from Commissioners. Did not receive any amendments, so what was published, and what we’re presenting today, matches what we talked about on that day,” Berger said. “I think we’ve got a really good budget, I think we did a good job stretching tax dollars and holding the line on property taxes.”
The budget includes a mill levy of 58.059, reflecting a minor decrease from the 58.319 mill levy of 2019.
The total budget is $24,468,374.
The budget represents input provided by the Commission, and city staff, during a series of budget workshops held earlier this summer.
