Budget time in Westminster

Budget time has arrived in Westminster.  One of the decisions to be in front of the city council next week is whether to give first reading to the new city budget for 2024-25.  First reading is to take place during the 6 o’clock meeting Tuesday night at the fire department.  For all purposes, the projects a steep increase in spending:  from $27 million this year to in excess of $40.5 million next year.  Preceding first reading the council will open to meeting to public comment and questions.
