The Chattanooga City Council is set to vote tonight on a amendment for the 2011-2012 fiscal year budget that doles out money for agencies once jointly funded by the city and Hamilton County.
The council approved the city’s budget two weeks ago, but decided to wait on funding the agencies because of lingering questions. About $20 million of city money will be used to support social service and quasi-governmental agencies.
Half the money comes from sales tax after a 45-year-old agreement between the city and county expired two months ago.
