Key items on our agenda include:
• PARKING REVENUE FINANCING FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS – This resolution would authorize the City to borrow up to $750,000 for parking garage repairs, including the repair and replacement of a stair tower in the Lakeview Garage and other structural repairs to the Marketplace Garage.
• APPROVAL OF THE MAYOR'S RECOMMENDED BUDGET FOR FY2024 AND THE ANNUAL PROPERTY TAX ASSESSMENT FOR THE COMING YEAR – Perhaps the most important action the Council takes all year is the vote on the mayor's recommended budget, setting the funding for city services and our community's priorities for the coming year. The Council has been meeting with the Administration since early May to discuss the budget. Department heads and staff have met with the Council to review their budget over four meetings in May. I encourage you to check out the budget details at https://www.burlingtonvt.gov/CT/Budgets/Fiscal-Year-2024-Budget
