Crossville City Council to hold budget work session Thursday June 2 at 5 PM

The City of Crossville's 2016-17 budget could get some additional finishing touches at a work session on the budget set for Thursday June 2 at 5 PM. The meeting will be held in the city hall conference room 317 and is open to the public.

The the city will hold a public hearing on the budget and, in addition, the second reading the budget ordinance are scheduled for the regular council meeting on Thursday June 9.

The budget started at $2.4 million in the red and at last tally according to city finance director Fred Houston stands at a much lower $577,641 in the red.  The city also holds a fund balance of well over $10 million. The budget as it stands includes a 3 percent raise for city employees and a continuation of the wellness program. Final decisions on the funding of outside agencies or non-profits remains to be determined.

With a change in city managers at a critical point of the budget the process has appeared to stay on track and be close to completed.
