City Council OKs new budget after disagreement over committee funds
The City of Maricopa’s operating budget for fiscal year 2017-18 was officially adopted by City Council, Tuesday, after a short debate over improvements at Copper Sky Recreation Center and funding several council members were hoping to see provided for boards and committees.
The passing of the almost $39 million budget was slowed by the two sticking points, which when combined amount to around $68,000.
The gym upgrades at Copper Sky are proposed to only cost $23,000, but have been allocated an additional $20,000 in contingency funds if costs exceed the initial proposal.
