Background: The City Council must announce a date, time and place for the budget and tax levy to be discussed, for citizens to have the opportunity to speak on the budget and where the final budget and tax levy will be adopted. This may be at a regularly scheduled meeting between November 24 and December 28, 2012. Discussion: The 2012 City Council meeting schedule shows regular meetings on Tuesday, December 4th and Tuesday December 18th. Either of these meetings could be used as the time for budget and tax levy to be discussed, citizen input allowed, and final adoption of the budget and tax levy. This was briefly discussed at the August 23rd work session and it was tentatively decided to use the December 4th meeting for the budget discussions and actions. If needed, the adoption of the 2013 budget and tax levy can be continued to the December 18th meeting. City Council Actions: I recommend that discussion, public input and adoption of the final 2013 budget and tax levy take place at a public hearing at 7:00 P.M., on Tuesday, December 4, 2012, at City Hall. The public hearing could be held at the meeting on Tuesday, December 18, 2012 as an alternative, except that if the meeting is on the 18th, there isn’t another meeting to continue it to. Final decisions would have to be made that night unless a special meeting was scheduled prior to December 28th. A motion is required to set a date, time and place for a public hearing for discussion of, public input on and adoption of the final 2013 budget and tax levy.
