Treasurer Urges Residents to Review Tax Bills for Clarity on Fund Allocation
Treasurer Esteimer announced that tax bills have been mailed out and encouraged residents to review them for a clear understanding of payments and recipients. He noted that the majority of collected taxes are dispersed outside the city, with funds retained by the city primarily allocated to fire, police, streets, community center debt, rubbish collection, and the library, leaving little for city operations. He also highlighted the annual cost for rubbish collection, which includes trash, recycling, yard waste, and free bulk pickup. [cite: 684-917]

Wayne County Parks Millage Fund Allocates $64,226 for Ellen Park Plaza Construction
The city council approved the allocation of $64,226 from the Wayne County Parks Millage Fund for fiscal year 25-26 to be used for the build and construction of the former Ellen Park show plaza. This funding is described as completely no-match funding, meaning no taxpayer dollars or city funds are required. The funds can be used for various aspects of the project, such as electricity, signage, or landscaping, as long as it passes the project's description test, which it is expected to do based on verbal conversations with Commissioner Palamera. The process involves writing a narrative, submitting it to Wayne County, and then accepting the allocation, which is anticipated to take approximately three to four months. This funding is in addition to previously discussed city contributions. [cite: 414-484]
