Georgetown City Council is expected to vote Tuesday on adoption of the city's fiscal year 2017-18 budget, which includes funding for a slew of new full-time and part-time city staff positions, transportation and roadway improvements, and city parks upgrades.
Council members voted unanimously Aug. 22 to adopt the budget on its initial reading.
A second vote is necessary before the budget is finalized prior to the Oct. 1 start of FY 2017-18.
City Manager David Morgan said during a budget workshop in July that the FY 2017-18 budget is broad in scope, with funding included for projects such as the new Downtown West municipal office development, operation of the future Garey Park, and continued construction of the Southwest Bypass that will eventually link Hwy. 29 and I-35.
