City Council members are scheduled to vote on the second and final reading tonight of the city’s 2010-2011 fiscal year budget, but it is unclear if it will be approved.
Some council members said today the vote could be deferred another week.
“I don’t think we’re ready,” said Councilman Peter Murphy. “But that’s just me.”
The council spent the majority of today during a Budget, Finance and Personnel meeting talking about city employee take-home cars and whether to hike the city’s hotel/motel tax to get additional revenue.
The council voted 6-3 last week on first reading of the city’s budget, which calls for a property tax increase of 37 cent per $100 of assessed value.
