Southbury officials proposing budget for coming fiscal year

Southbury officials are proposing a budget for the coming fiscal year with a 3.68 percent increase.  First Selectman Jeffrey Manville is proposing a $22.37 million tax and spending plan.  He says the proposed budget increase is due in part to a requirement to have police body cameras, a hike in fuel costs and the increase in the minimum wage.  Employees in Parks and Rec and some other departments are minimum wage workers.  Due to revenue increases, Manville says there could be a slight reduction in the mill rate.  The Board of Selectmen and Finance Director will review the proposal before it goes to a referendum in May.
