JAMESTOWN – The Jamestown City Council will have its first public meeting on the 2015 city budget when it meets tonight in city hall.
Earlier this month, Jamestown Mayor Sam teresi presented a $34.7 million budget that calls for a 2.86 percent increase in the property tax rate. But because the tax increase is below the state tax cap, residents would receive property tax rebate checks that would cover the difference between the 2014 and 2015 tax payment.
Tonight, city council members will review the spending plan for the Department of Public Works, Parks and Youth Services. The budget deliberations will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the mayor’s conference room on the fourth floor of city hall. It is open to the public.
