The Buffalo City Council, at their recent meeting, passed its fiscal year 2021 budget on its second reading with no changes from the first reading.

The council passed the first reading of the budget in May, and are expected to pass the budget Ordinance on its third and final reading June 16th.

Ordinance No. 1405 set the city’s budget at just under $13 million, but as explained at an earlier meeting, nearly half of the $13 million budget is in capital improvement projects that have already been funded through grants and a special sales tax.

Capital Improvements make up about six million dollars of the budget, including the Buffalo Business Park project, the Buffalo Wells and Transmission Line project and the Fetterman/Burritt Street project.

The city’s General Fund portion is about $4 million, with an additional $3 million generated from Enterprise Funds.
