City of Tomahawk Common Council meeting

Wednesday, November 30, 2011

The Tomahawk Common Council met last night and approved two ordinances involving the 2012 city budget. Finance Committee Chairman Roger Schlegal said that after many deliberations and many challenges, sacrifices were made by all departments. He also mentioned initiatives to look at how the government works as advised by the Financial planner. He thanked all the city staff, department heads and clerk for all the work they put in making tough decisions. The Council also approved an ordinance setting the levy amounts for the tax year, even though it is incomplete. They are still awaiting a tax credit from the state.

The council approved the parking fees set by the public works committee at a previous meeting. These fees will be for the parking stalls in the municipal lot across from City Hall. There are six stalls currently available. They will be $15 for 7 days or $30 for 30 days. They also approved the building inspector contract for November 1 of this year until October 31, 2014.
