Once this preliminary levy is set, it cannot be increased - but may be decreased. A final budget
and levy are adopted by the City Council and certified to the County by late December each year.
By statute, the City Council is legally required to adopt budgets for the general fund and all
special revenue funds.
DISCUSSION:
In order to start the budget process, a budget calendar needs to be approved by the council.
Council discussed the attached budget calendar at the May 21,2007, work session.
