In what is now, as opposed to last week’s Tentative Budget Hearing lasting ten minutes, the shortest meeting in years, totaling seven minutes, the Cedar Key City Commissioners met at City Hall on Monday, September 15, 2014, for its Final Budget Hearing at 6pm. 

All commissioners were in attendance:  Mayor Dale Register, Vice-Mayor Sue Colson, and Commissioners Tina Ryan, Royce Nelson, and Nettie Hodges.  Staff in attendance were Police Chief / Public Works Director Virgil Sandlin, City Clerk Teresa George, and staffer Lisa Fine.

Commissioners unanimously approved two resolutions.   Resolution Number 358 adopted the final levy of ad valorem taxes for the City.   Resolution Number 359 adopted the city’s 2014-2015 final budget.

This final budget is based on the rollback rate of 5.4940, which requires no raise in city taxes for the 2014-2015 fiscal year.

A copy of the final budget is available at City Hall.
