HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The Hutchinson City Council has scheduled its next budget discussions for Thursday, June 17th at 6 p.m.
Valuation information that the council needs to make some of its decisions will be available June 15th.
A challenge for the council and all local governing bodies in Kansas will be whether or not it can stay flat or below the new Revenue Neutral Rate and not have to deal with the additional reporting requirements that an increase in taxes as a result of valuation increases would trigger.
The meeting on the 17th is likely the last budget meeting for the council in June, as Mayor Steve Garza is scheduled to be out of town later in the month.
