Commerce – The proposed budget for the City of Commerce includes a 6 cent tax increase; from .76 to .82 cents per $100 valuation and a $700 raise per employee.
During a recent budget workshop, a majority of council gave consent to not conduct a search for a new city manager this fiscal year. The proposed budget does not include any additional funding for streets.
On Tuesday, council will meet in executive session for a "discussion regarding salary adjustments for the Interim City Manager and Accounting Supervisor".
