City passes 2018 budget

Share

Bee Cave City Council met on September 12th and passed a budget that local news media are branding as conservative and "tame"

 

The primary points of the budget are:

  • Sales Tax Revenue was budgeted at $9MM - down from $9.6MM last year.
  • Property Tax remained at 2c per $100, one of the lowest in the State
  • Two new employees for 2018
  • Questions are being raised over how to use the Hotel Occupancy Tax
  • Bill Goodwin noted the increasing costs of the Police Department

City councillors took to their social media accounts to remind residents that local spending was important to support a low tax rate. No numbers have been seen on the impact of the major new 620 corridor retail and restaurants on sales tax in Bee Cave vs Lakeway.
