CriticalTaxes Budget
Spending $18.5M in Vision economic development surplus funds
The committee debated how to allocate roughly $18.5 million left over from the 2017 Vision sales tax, with proposals ranging from utility assistance and after-school programs to a Brookside parking garage. Councilors clashed over whether the process was fair and whether money is spread too district-by-district; decisions may come next week.
