Some other key services include comprehensive maintenance of roads, bridges, and stormwater infrastructure. Budget Details Budget enhancements include up to 5% for employee merit pay increases. Equipment purchases planned in the 2025 budget include replacement of two F-150 utility trucks, one F-250 utility truck, a mobile generator to support sanitary sewer lift station operations, and a lift.
