Parkersburg City Council Finance Committee to Review Budget Adjustments

February 3, 2025 - 11:13

PARKERSBURG — The Finance Committee of the City Council is set to convene on Tuesday evening to evaluate proposed mid-year budget revisions for Parkersburg. The meeting is slated for 6 p.m. in the executive conference room located on the second floor of the Municipal Building.

These budget adjustments are largely supported by an anticipated increase of $250,000 in business and occupation tax revenue. This influx is expected to provide the necessary funding to address various financial needs within the city.

Committee members will discuss how these adjustments can best serve the community and ensure that city services remain effective and efficient. The meeting is open to the public, and residents are encouraged to attend and participate in the discussion surrounding the city's financial planning and priorities.

As the city continues to navigate economic challenges, these budget revisions will play a crucial role in shaping Parkersburg's fiscal landscape for the remainder of the year.
