Independent audit finds city's finances are in tip-top shape
We spent less than we brought in - $1.4 million less - cutting expenses by 13%. We reduced our debt by nearly $1.2 million. And we had an ending balance of nearly $2.3 million. We also put more money into improving the quality of life we all treasure, namely parks and recreation, cultural events, beautification and landscaping, and law enforcement.
