Budget Talks End With 1% Levy Increase

   City Council wrapped up budget deliberations with a commitment to replace the Library fountains this year while cutting the proposed levy increase from two to one percent.
   There were only a handful of changes to the proposed budget. Council will officially adopt the spending plan on May 31.
    Lawmakers also learned the Privateers hockey team is coming to terms  with a City proposal on locker room use that protects current users by requiring the pro team to remove gear to a storage trailer after games.
    Council also shopped the idea of a trial program for Sunday hours at the Library for this fall to see if the concept works.
