Budget Talks At Oxford County Council

Oxford County Council is set to return to Council Chambers, for the latest budget meeting.

OXFORD COUNTY - Budget talks are set to continue in Oxford County Council Chambers.

Council will continue to discuss the proposed budget of almost $230 million on Tuesday and a draft levy increase of 3.4 percent.

Warden David Mayberry says the proposed levy shouldn't scare county residents.

"The expenditures are up little over 3 percent, the growth in the county is also up that much so the average homeowner wouldn't see an increase because of the increase in taxes, the growth would take care of it so that's probably good news."

Mayberry adds they will carefully examine some of the budget details on Tuesday.

"We'll start into more of the details; looking at what kind of things council believes should be in or should not be in the budget and is there anything that isn't there that council would like to see."

They will consider a recommendation brought forward by the Local Court Security Advisory Committee and take a look at MPAC's  preliminary property assessment figures.
