The Three Rivers City Commission will conduct a public hearing on the proposed budget for Fiscal Year 2011-12 during its regular meeting Tuesday evening (June 7th).

Scheduling of the hearing reflects the fact that the budget-making process underway in recent weeks, including special commission meetings on May 10th and 24th, is nearing an end.

The May 24th meeting yielded a consensus that gave direction to the administration for preparation of the proposed spending plan that will be the subject of the hearing.

To view the resolution that outlines the proposed “General Appropriations Act of the City of Three Rivers for the fiscal year commencing July 1, 2011” that will be up for adoption following the hearing, click here.  The resolution also sets forth the various millage levies that will be used to support the budget.

In other business, the commission is expected to:

  • Consider authorizing the fireworks display permit for the Three Rivers Water Festival
  • Consider approving an additional $34,750 for engineering costs associated with the Constantine Street project
  • Consider adopting a resolution authorizing the mayor and city manager to sign contracts with the Michigan Department of Transportation for the Constantine Street project
  • Consider a budget appropriate from the walnut sale funds to cover the cost of fence repair at Riverside Cemetery
  • Consider setting show cause hearings for dilapidated structures at 1109 Canal Street, 909 and 907 River Street, and 704 Seventh Street
