FY2025 Budget

In response to resident feedback, service data, and the need for continued investment in stormwater infrastructure and flood mitigation, the Fiscal Year 2025 Budget prioritizes the following investments in public health and safety.  

• Expands police services by funding four additional police officers and four additional automated license plate reader (Flock) cameras.
• Expands emergency medical services by funding part-time paramedics to staff a second primary ambulance during peak hours.
• Invests in improvements to drainage services through a newly-established stormwater utility.
• Invests in improvements to water, wastewater, and solid waste services through fees designed to recover the cost of providing those services, with tiered water rates for affordability and to encourage conservation.
• Invests in the workforce by modifying the existing step pay plan to ensure all regular, full-time positions are benchmarked to the 50th percentile of the market effective October 1, 2024, granting all eligible employees a 3% salary (step) increase under the modified plan effective January 1, 2025, and removing the cap on longevity pay to recognize employees who continue to serve beyond 25 years.
