Plano city council to consider budget Monday night

Plano City Hall could vote on the city’s budget for the fiscal year that starts Friday.

The item is on the agenda for Monday’s meeting, which begins at 6 p.m. A Committee of the Whole session will follow the regular meeting. The meeting will be held at Plano City Hall, 17 E. Main Street.

The city expects about $10 million in general fund revenue but is planning about $11 million in spending, with the difference to be covered by reserves. Increased employee wages and equipment purchases are cited as the reasons.

The mayor will also make a proclamation for Motorcycle Awareness Month, and the council will vote to pay about $210,000 in bills.

During the Committee of the Whole session, the council will consider a liquor license for the Exquisite Skillet Pancake House.
