Auburn Council Approves Budget
09/18/2012

(KTNC) - The Auburn City Council approved the 2012-13 Fiscal Year Budget during a special hearing Friday evening. 
 Mayor Scott Kudrna says the budget was approved as presented with a couple exceptions.  One, he says, involves $200,000 that had been earmarked for the S Street paving project.  (play audio  :40)

 The budget was approved unanimously.  Auburn’s property tax levy will remain unchanged from last year, and will result in a little more than $578,000 in revenue to the city, an increase of about $4,300.
 The Auburn Council also narrowly approved the salary ordinance on a 3-2 vote.  Mayor Kudrna explains the discussion.  (play audio  :45)
 The salary ordinance calls for a two-percent increase for all full-time and permanent part-time city employees, and no adjustment for seasonal employees.
