The Manhattan city commission on Tuesday reached a consensus maximum 2025 budget of $229.6 million and mill levy increase of 4 mills.
Tuesday’s meeting set a cap on spending, and commissioners said the exact figures could lower at the september 3rd meeting.
Overall, the commissioners had differing philosophical approaches to balancing the budget, with some favoring a more aggressive approach to increasing revenue through higher mill levies, while others wanted to focus more on reducing expenditures.
City staff presented scenarios with both a 3.2 and 4 mill levy increase, and Commissioner John Matta said both are too high for Manhattan.
