Chamblee recently approved a 2012 budget that calls for small raises for employees and adds a senior planner to city staff.

The $14.76 million budget includes a surplus of about $600,000 and keeps the millage rate at the 7.4 rate adopted in July. The city will review the property digest in May before setting its tax rate for 2012.
