COUNCIL ADDRESSES BUDGET IN ADVANCE OF ADOPTION

(Richmond, IN)--It was a relatively brief meeting of the Richmond Common Council Monday night with ordinances for next year’s budget in the forefront.  The ordinances were on second reading, which is when public comment is taken.  No members of the public spoke Monday night, and there was no discussion about the specifics of the budgets.  "I think we should keep these on second reading in case somebody wants to change something," said Council President Larry Parker.  Next up is a special meeting on the 30th to formally adopt the budget.
