City's new budget set for adoption Monday

Sat, May 17, 2008    to del.icio.us

Grand Haven's 2008-09 fiscal year budget, which begins July 1, will likely be officially adopted by City Council when it meets Monday night.

Council held a required public hearing for the new budget, which includes nearly $12 million of expenditures in general operations, at its May 5 meeting.

Also on Monday's agenda is consideration of transferring ownership of a state liquor license from a now-closed Centertown restaurant at 211 N. Seventh St. to another company to be held in escrow, and a discussion on potentially setting a moratorium on issuing new summer rental housing permits.

The meeting will begin at 7:30 p.m.

At a work session starting at 7 p.m., council will discuss the City Hall Annex, 20 N. Fifth St.

Both the meeting and work session will take place in council's chambers at Grand Haven City Hall, 519 Washington Ave.
