5 budget amendments...not counting police because it is neutral...that increase spending. The new fiscal year just started in July. This is very poor oversight by Ireton, Day, and Mitchell. ALL of these items should have been included in the proposed budget and considered in the context of their importance to the city's other operating needs. That's how a budget and we'll run city should work. I believe that Ireton purposely held up the salary study until after budget.
