The Fredonia City Commission votes to exceed the revenue neutral rate for the coming year.

 

 The Fredonia City Commission held a public hearing to exceed the revenue neutral rate at Wednesday night's meeting. There was a packed house inside the commission room as Fredonia residents gathered to observe the budget discussion. Interim City Administrator John Torline explains briefly what it means for the city to exceed the revenue neutral rate.

 

The public hearing was opened and closed with no comment from the public. The commission approved the resolution to exceed the revenue neutral rate and raise the mil levy, then moved on to the public hearing for the 2025 budget. Torline says it's a good budget prepared by former City Administrator Wes Young.

 

There was also no public comment on the budget, which was unanimously approved by the commission.
